Country Boy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You know I'm just a country boy And a long, long way from home You know me as a poor country boy And I'm a long, long way from home You know peoples, I can't read or write People please don't do me wrong [Verse 2] Can you remember, baby? Can you remember the words you said? Oh can you remember the words you said? When I was sick and down, woman I needed you to rub my aching head [Verse 4] I was born in the country, baby People said I've never been to town Yes, I was born in the country Peoples, I never been to town You know, why don't you reconsider, baby? Stop and lay your burden down [Verse 5] You know I've been having trouble everywhere I go I been having trouble everywhere I go Yes, because I'm a country boy I've been drifting from door to door [Verse 6] I'm gonna catch a freight train smokin' Back down the road, I'm gone I'm gonna catch the freight train smokin' People, down the road, I'm gone You know I am going back to Mississippi People, where I was bred and born
