alberta hunter - down south blues lyrics

Loading...

if i had listened to my sweet old mother
i’d be right in my southern home
but instead, i had a hard, hard head
so i started out to roam

now i’ve traveled north, south, east and west
no comfort have i found
well i’ve got my luggage all packed up
and again i am down south bound

when i get back, my folks will meet me with outstretched arms
lord, when i get back, my folks will meet me with outstretched arms
my father and mother, they’ll protect and keep me from all harm

my mother’s old, and her hair is turning gray
lord, my poor mother’s old, and her hair is turning gray
and it would break her heart to see me living this [?] way

[instrumental break]

now there’s an old saying, “it never rains unless it pours”
i say there’s an old saying, “it never rains unless it pours”
but all will be sunshine, when i reach those good old sunny sh-r-s

[?] the train, [?] northern yard
[?] the train, [?] northern yard
i’m going back down south, if i have to [?]
