Charley Pride - On The Southbound Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Well I woke up this morning when the cold Chicago wind
  • Blew my newspaper blanket off my back
  • Through my dirty broken window the grey sun filtered in
  • As I dreamed about the Southbound railroad track
  • I could almost hear the crickets in a sleepy cottonfield
  • As daddy drove our vagon to Virgin
  • But today I'd give a fortune for a twenty five cent meal
  • And I wish I was a country boy again
  • So let me ride on the Southbound
  • Back to where I came from I don't care or where I am
  • So let me ride on the Southbound and put me off somewhere near Birmingham
  • [ steel ]
  • What happened to my vision of a mansion on a hill
  • And the fame and fortune I came here to win
  • I've got nothing but the roaches running cross my window sill
  • And I wish I was a country boy again
  • So let me ride ...
