I Was Young When I Left Home |
I was young when i left home |
An' I been out a-ramblin' round |
An' I never wrote a letter to my home |
To my home, lord, to my home |
An' I never wrote a letter to my home. |
It was just the other day |
I was bringin' home my pay |
When i met an' old friend i used to know |
Said, «Your mother is dead an' gone |
An' your sisters all gone wrong |
An' your daddy needs you home right away.'' |
Not a shirt on my back |
Not a penny on my name |
But I can’t go home this a-way |
This a-way, lord, this a-way |
An' I can’t go home this a-way. |
If you miss the train I’m on Count the days I’m gone |
You will hear that whistle blow hundred miles |
Hundred miles, honey baby, lord, lord, lord |
An' you’ll hear that whistle blow hundred miles. |
An' I’m playin' on a track, ma’d come an' woop me back |
On them trusses down by Ol' Jim McKay’s |
When I pay the debt i own to the commissary store |
I will pawn my watch an' chain an' go home |
Go home, lord, lord, lord |
I will pawn my watch an' chain an' go home. |
Used to tell my ma sometimes |
When I see them ridin' blind |
Gonna make me a home out in the wind |
In the wind, lord in the wind |
Make me a home out in the wind. |
I don’t like it in the wind |
I go back home again |
But i can’t go home this a-way |
This a-way, lord, lord, lord |
An' i can go home this a-way. |
I was young when i left home |
An' I been out a-ramblin' round |
An' I never wrote a letter to my home |
To my home, lord, to my home |
An' I never wrote a letter to my home. |
