Ain't No Place For A Country Boy |
| I pack my clothes in a cardboard box and mama packed my lunch |
| I walk down to the highway and caught a Trails Ways bus |
| I woke up in the city stepped down on the curb |
| And the strangest lookin' people and sounds I’ve never heard |
| It ain’t no place for a country boy it ain’t no place to be |
| It might be fine for a city boy but it ain’t no place for me |
| I keep my nineteen dollars stuck way down in my shoe |
| It cost me seven fifty for a dirty sleepin' room |
| My window faced the alley and the city smells were strong |
| I couldn’t sleep for horns and sirens blowin' all night long |
| It ain’t no place… |
| I didn’t even bother to unpack the clothes that I brought |
| Some man paid me ten dollars for grandpas pocket watch |
| I got off the Trails Ways bus the same place I got on |
| My head is full of memories walkin' down the road to home |
| It ain’t no place… |
