Down South Blues Songtext
von Dock Boggs

I′m goin' to the station
Gonna catch the fastest train that goes
I′m a-goin' back South
Where the weather suits my clothes


I'm goin′ back South
If I wear out 99 pair of shoes
′Cause I'm broken-hearted
I′ve got those down South blues

I was reared in a country
Where the snow it never fell
I'm a-goin′ back South
If I don't do so well

Oh my mama told me
And my daddy told me too
Don′t you go off, honey
Let those men make a fool outta you
