| Early in the mornin' it was drizzling rain
|
| 'round the curve come a passenger train
|
| Under the wheel was KC Jones, a mighty man dead and gone
|
| A mighty man dead and gone
|
| Some folks say mister KC couldn’t run
|
| Lemme tell you what KC done
|
| Left out of Memphis, quarter-to-nine
|
| New York City dinner time
|
| KC was walkin' down Nelson lane
|
| Two Policeman lookin' to learn his name
|
| Carry poor KC to the stationhouse
|
| Natural born rounder but they turn him out
|
| On the road again
|
| Natural born Eastman on the road again
|
| The reason I say I’m on the road again
|
| The police arrest me for sellin' gin
|
| Sold my gin and I sold it straight
|
| The police brought me to my woman’s gate
|
| She opened the door, she nodded her head
|
| She said, «Furry, you’re welcome to my foldin' bed»
|
| KC welcome to my foldin' bed
|
| KC told the farmer just before he died
|
| There’s one more road he’d like to ride
|
| The farmer asked KC, «which road is he?»
|
| The Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe
|
| If you want to get to heaven when you D-I-E
|
| Better put on a collar and your T-I-E
|
| Wanna chase a rabbit out a L-O-G
|
| You better raise a commotion like a D-O-G
|
| Come on you men if you want to flirt
|
| Yonder come a woman in a miniskirt
|
| She got a half yard o' ribbon wrapped around her leg
|
| Step like she steppin' on scrambled egg
|
| I’m leavin' Memphis, spread the news
|
| Memphis women don’t wear no shoes
|
| Got my name written on the back of my shirt
|
| Natural born Eastmen don’t have to work
|
| Early in the mornin' it was drizzling rain
|
| 'round the curve come a passenger train
|
| Under the wheel was old hobo John
|
| He was a good hobo but he’s dead and gone
|
| Another great man dead and gone |
