Font:      
Align:    
  • The time, 11:33 on a saturday, november, 1923
  • Im synchronized, its wise to keep my wits about me
  • My name is roy, a one-time choir boy
  • Now Im sixteen, man, and Im nobodys toy
  • Im gonna take to the wind and get this town behind me
  • (chorus)
  • Im jumpin a train leavin town
  • Howling whistle sounds
  • And Im not looking back -- gonna tie my fate to a train track
  • Got a whiskey bottle tied in a corn sack
  • Hold on world, Im coming, Im hitching a ride on a north-bound train
  • Am I alive? wont somebody tell me
  • The mississippi waves, whats it trying to sell me?
  • Mud in the banks, but no one gets thanks
  • When its tracked in through the doorway
  • I am home grown, sewn into these britches
  • But Im not spending my life digging up ditches
  • Like my daddy did, and his daddy did, and his daddy before
