Stompin' Ground |
| 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 leavin'? |
| 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 goin' 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 mornin' paper |
| I’ve been lookin' all around |
| Well, I’m just gonna dig in my heels |
| See how it feels |
| I’m goin' back to my stompin' ground |
| My old stompin' ground, let’s go |
