Jimmy Buffett
Ellis Dee

By: jimmy buffett, buzz cason
1970
Why is he cussin' and callin' disgustin'
The city that is now his home
He never smiles or keeps up with styles
He is black and he is all alone
And you ask why he's this way
Well brother you're too blind to see
It's cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me

Get out of the street don't get high on my beat
Go on home the policeman warns
Just 'cause you're poor why do you declare war
I can't help the way that you were born
Why are they holdin' him down
He's spending his life on his knees
'cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me

Chorus:
Got to help ellis
Got to help ellis
You know we got to help ellis ellis dee
Try and help ellis you and me
Got to get to ellis hear his plea
Try and help ellis get free

Ellis got hooked, he got booked and he shook
In his cold little shivery cell
While out on the street in that same funky beat
Mister pusher was doing well
And ellis junior cries tears his daddy can't see
'cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me

Chorus:
Got to help ellis
Got to help ellis
You know we got to help ellis ellis dee
Try and help ellis you and me
Got to get to ellis hear his plea
Try and help ellis get free

'cause ellis dee ain't fee like you and me
No ellis dee ain't free like you and me


Mirror lyrics:

No ellis dee ain't free like you and me
'cause ellis dee ain't fee like you and me

Try and help ellis get free
Got to get to ellis hear his plea
Try and help ellis you and me
You know we got to help ellis ellis dee
Got to help ellis
Got to help ellis
Chorus:

'cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me
And ellis junior cries tears his daddy can't see
Mister pusher was doing well
While out on the street in that same funky beat
In his cold little shivery cell
Ellis got hooked, he got booked and he shook

Try and help ellis get free
Got to get to ellis hear his plea
Try and help ellis you and me
You know we got to help ellis ellis dee
Got to help ellis
Got to help ellis
Chorus:

'cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me
He's spending his life on his knees
Why are they holdin' him down
I can't help the way that you were born
Just 'cause you're poor why do you declare war
Go on home the policeman warns
Get out of the street don't get high on my beat

It's cause ellis dee ain't free like you and me
Well brother you're too blind to see
And you ask why he's this way
He is black and he is all alone
He never smiles or keeps up with styles
The city that is now his home
Why is he cussin' and callin' disgustin'
