country boy - john lee hooker lyrics

Loading...

i ain’t nothin’ but a country boy
driftin’ from town to town
i ain’t nothin’ but a country boy
driftin’ from town to town
got no place, ooh yeah
to call my home

sometime in travellin’
i travel when nights are blue
sometime my night
my night so dark and blue
but i keep on travellin’
no place to lay my worried head

i’m just a country boy
driftin’ from town to town
driftin’ from town to town
i ain’t got no place
to lay my worried head, baby

sometime i lay down on the highway
i cry to take my rest
i hear a freight train howlin’
i drown my head and run
i’m just a country boy
driftin’ from town to town, have mercy

now one night i was travellin’
i saw a light in the winter
i was so cold at night
and my clothes were soakin’ wet
i walked on to the door
i knocked on the door

a little girl come to the door
she said, “mister, what do you want”
i said, “it’s cold outside, baby”
she looked at me and said
“come on in, i wanna talk to you”

i got a brother who left home
he was twelve years old
just like the prodigal son
i know you’d find him
