Encyclopedia > Down in the Alley

In the song "Down In The Alley", Memphis Minnie sings verses about meeting various men who, for example, ask to "pal up with" her and she says yes, take me down in the alley, which is where she can "get his business fixed all right". Towards the end it's about being treated rough and intending to "stop walking, late at night".
