[Verse 1]
Take me back to old Yazoo
Everything up here is new
I can't stand it, just must landed
Going back to Old Yazoo

[Verse 2]
Everything you do
People got their eyes on you
It's compelling, y'have me yelling
Going back to Old Yazoo

[Bridge]
If you don't like beans and rice
Get your rice and beans
If you don't like greens and ham
Just get your ham and greens

[Verse 3]
How long will I have you wait?
Standing at the station gate
Broken hearted, gotta get started
Going back to Old Yazoo

[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to Old Yazoo
Everything up here is new
I can't stand it, just must landed
Going back to Old Yazoo
Everything you do
Peoplе got their eyes on you
It's compеlling, y'have me yelling
"Take me back to Old Yazoo"
[Post-Chorus]
If you don't like beans and rice
Get your rice and beans
If you don't like greens and ham
Just get your ham and greens
Lordy, lordy

[Verse 4]
How long will I have to wait
Standing at the station gate
I'm broken hearted
Gotta get started
Going back to old Yazoo

[Refrain]
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)
I am going to Yazoo, that's where I belong
Everything I tell you seems to be all wrong
Yazoo (Yazoo)
Yazoo (Yazoo)

[Vocalizing Interlude]
[Outro]
Going back to old Yazoo
(Going back to old Yazoo)
