the 77s – southbound lyrics
[verse 1]
i been here a month or more
stuck in this old city
people have to call it home
they’re the ones i pity
lord, i’m homesick
the blues are the only songs i ever seem to pick
i get out and walk the street ’til i get blisters on my feet
i’m southbound
walk it
[instrumental interlude]
[verse 2]
i’m all right ’til late at night
i’m sitting by my window
i count sheep, but i can’t sleep
but listen to that whistle blow
i begin to pine
when i hear that big ol’ engine rolling down the line
i’m gonna back and spend some time
where a friend’s a friend when you ain’t got a dime
i’m southbound
you think about it
[instrumental interlude]
[verse 3]
i’m southbound, she’s burning the ground
and i don’t mean maybe
sure am glad i caught this train
wanna see my baby
lord, i’m lonesome
long to see them hills that i come from
listen to the engine rattling, lord
taking me back home once more
i’m southbound
ride it on down now
