rocking chair blues - mipso lyrics

[verse 1]
i was born in the country
and raised in the town
i spent every sunday
wand’ring around
i raised lots of cane
’til my momma would cry
she prayed my harvest
would wither and die
wither and die, lord
wither and die

[chorus]
these slow*going highways
and red*running river i choose
the song of the siren
the rhythm of nothing to lose
every step off the front porch
is a step into rocking chair blues

[verse 2]
i went down to oxford
to find me some blues
i measured my miles
by the holes in my shoes
i listen for autumn
and followed the sound
and left off the things
that fell to the ground
fell to the ground, lord
fell to the ground
[chorus]
these slow*going highways
and red*running river i choose
the song of the siren
the rhythm of nothing to lose
every step off the front porch
is a step into rocking chair blues

[bridge]
if i wandered away, would you call me back?
’cause i’m already gone
i’m drifting astray
and humming the highway song

[outro]
i was born in the country
and raised in the town
i spent every sunday
wand’ring around
wand’ring around, lord
wand’ring around
