Lyrics

I'm goin' to the station
Gonna catch the fastest train that goes
I'm a-goin' back South
Where the weather suits my clothes
I'm goin' back South
If I wear out 99 pair of shoes
'Cause I'm broken-hearted
I've got those down South blues
I was reared in a country
Where the snow it never fell
I'm a-goin' back South
If I don't do so well
Oh my mama told me
And my daddy told me too
Don't you go off, honey
Let those men make a fool outta you
