Lyrics

Been workin' the fields most of my life
Till one day I decided to leave
I went to New York City, the things I saw
The folks back home, they wouldn't believe
I saw them long-legged women, look like skin and bones
Dresses so short you couldn't tell they had one on
I'm goin' home
Where women got some meat on their bones
I'm goin' home
Where women got meat on their bones
'Cause there ain't a woman in this town
Big enough to keep me warm
Pimps standin' on corners of their cars
So long they look like limousines
I heard one say he had to [check his traps?]
By that time my pocket was clean
I couldn't get myself together no matter how I tried
The women there were too little to bake or to fry
I'm goin' home
Where women got some meat on their bones
I'm goin' home
Where women got meat on their bones
'Cause there ain't a woman in this town
Big enough to keep me warm
Alright
I curse the day I caught that train
That's taken me away from home
I left for fine young woman, spent all of my money
On nothing but skin and bone
Well I hope it's not too late 'cause I'm goin' back
I just found out where all the meat is at
I'm goin' home
Where women got some meat on their bones
I'm goin' home
Where women got meat on their bones
'Cause there ain't a woman in this town
Big enough to keep me warm
Ha ha ha
I'm goin' back, where all that fat is at, ha ha ha
Aw yeah, I think I'll just go on back down in Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Missouri, you name it
Well all the girls down there got the meat on their bones
I may even go back to Little Rock, Arkansas, I love them girls over there, got the meat on they bones
Hahaha, y'all come on, take me back right there, that's good
