Son House came to me in a dream
And he was singin', just like this
I got my own railroad car
Settin' out there in the backyard
It's always there
Rain or shine
You might not think I'm goin' far
But sittin' out in that railroad cart
I'm goin' plenty places
Plenty places in my mind
I got my own, don't need yours
I got the key to all the doors
I been 'buked and I've been scorned
But I got my own
Got my own airplane
On my very own runway
Silver wings
Shinin' in the mornin' sun
You might not believe I can fly
But that's me way up in the sky
I'll be flyin' when your flyin' days
Your flyin' days are done
I got my own, don't need yours
I got the key to all the doors
I been 'buked and I've been scorned, people
But I got my own
Walkin' in Memphis the other day
Man tried to sell me some old beat-up Cadillac
Any fool, any fool could tell
It was on its, on its last go around
I said, "I appreciate your offer, sir
But that's my new Lincoln parked by the curb, yes it is
Now I must be goin'
I got a meetin' with the mayor downtown"
I got my own highway to victory
Where I'm goin', I can clearly see
No use tryin'
No use tryin' to block my road
Can't slow me down
And you know you can't, can't turn me around
I got my own highway to victory
And I'm on my way
I got my own railroad car
Settin' out there in my backyard
I've been 'buked and I've been scorned so hard
But I got my own, I got my own
