Back On My Stompin' Ground (After Hours) |
I’ve been bitten |
Lord, I’ve been stung |
Well I was cornered |
And I was almost hung |
Well, I sure made a getaway |
And I’m, almost back on my stompin' ground |
Well, it’s been written |
Many, many times it’s been sung |
Well, it’s well learned by the old folks |
And unheeded by the young |
Well, the grass may be greener but |
Me, I just want my stompin' ground |
Yeah… |
Well, I hear the river’s swollen |
The bridge is broken down |
Weatherman’s heartbroken |
But even he can’t stop me now |
Won’t you tell the folks I’m leaving |
And I won’t be long |
Keep the door wide open |
And you will hear the train I’m on |
I’ve been bitten |
Lord I’ve been stung |
Well that’s alright I’m going back |
To my old stompin' ground |
Drenched by the rain |
Almost blinded by the sun |
I’m too awake for walkin' |
But I’m much too tired to run |
I just want to let my feet sink |
Deep in my stompin' ground |
Well, I been jailed |
Last week I was sprung |
Well, it’s in the morning paper |
I’ve been lookin' all around |
Well, I’m just gonna dig in my heels |
See how it feels |
I’m going back to my stompin' ground |
My old stompin' ground, let’s go |
