Well, out of Southern Illinois. |
| [00:14.71] |
Come a down home country boy. |
| [00:18.00] |
He's gonna make it in the city |
| [00:19.87] |
Playin' guitar in the studio. |
| [00:23.43] |
Well he hadn't been there an hour, |
| [00:26.32] |
When he met a Broadway flower, |
| [00:29.70] |
You know she took him for his money |
| [00:31.40] |
And she left him in a cheap hotel. |
| [00:35.22] |
Oh, well, it's easy for you to see |
| [00:37.81] |
That that country boy is me |
| [00:40.83] |
Saying "And how am I gonna ever |
| [00:42.39] |
break the news to the folks back home?" |
| [00:46.73] |
Well, I was gonna be a great success, |
| [00:49.42] |
Things sure ended up a mess, |
| [00:52.78] |
But in the process I got messed up too. |
| [00:58.18] |
"Hello Mamma and Dad I had to call collect“ |
| [01:01.18] |
'Cause I ain't got a cent to my name. |
| [01:04.28] |
Well I'm sleepin' in the hotel doorway, |
| [01:07.08] |
And tonight they say it's gonna rain. |
| [01:09.65] |
And if you'd only send me some money |
| [01:13.12] |
I'll be back on my feet again, |
| [01:16.32] |
Send it in care of the Sunday Mission |
| [01:19.25] |
Box number ten.10 |
| [01:27.56] |
Well, back in Southern Illinois |
| [01:30.27] |
They're still worryin' 'bout their boy. |
| [01:33.52] |
But this boy's goin' home soon's he get's the fare. |
| [01:39.22] |
Because as soon as I got my bread |
| [01:41.97] |
I got a pipe upside my head. |
| [01:45.23] |
You know they left me in an alley, |
| [01:46.74] |
Took my money and my guitar, too. |
| [01:50.74] |
