Lyrics I'm Just A Country Boy - Otis Spann

I'm Just A Country Boy

You know I’m just a country boy
In a long, long way from home
You know me as a poor country boy, all right
And I’m a long, long way from home
You know peoples, I can’t read or write
People please don’t do me wrong
Can you remember baby
Can you remember the words you said
Can you remember the words you said
When I was sick and down woman
I needed you to rub my aching head
I was born in the country baby
People said I’ve never been to town
Yes I was born in the country
People said I never been to town
You know, why don’t you reconsider baby
Stop and leave your burden down
You know I been having trouble lately wherever I go
I been having trouble everywhere I go
Yes, because I’m a country boy
I’ve been drifting from door to door
Imma catch it first thing smokin'
Back down the road, I’m gone
Imma catch it first thing smokin'
People down the road, I’m gone
You know I’m going back to Mississippi
People where I was bred and born
