Well I woke up this morning

when the cold Chicago wind

Blew my newspaper blanket off my back

Through my dirty broken window

the grey sun filtered in

As I dreamed about the

Southbound railroad track

I could almost hear the crickets

in a sleepy cottonfield

As daddy drove our vagon to Virgin

But today I'd give a fortune

for a twenty five cent meal

And I wish I was a country boy again

So let me ride on the Southbound

Back to where I came from

I don't care or where I am

Let me ride on the Southbound

and put me off somewhere near Birmingham

What happened to my vision of a mansion

on a hill

And the fame and fortune

I came here to win

I've got nothing but the roaches running

cross my window sill

And I wish I was a country boy again

So let me ride

on the Southbound

Back to where I came from

I don't care or where I am

Let me ride on the Southbound

and put me off somewhere near Birmingham
