Font:      
Align:    
  • Bring a drink of water Leroy bring a drink of water (no)
  • If I could get to mercy man he's give me some I know
  • I got a gal in Vickburg Bertha is her name
  • Wish I's tied to Bertha instead of this ball and chain
  • I'm goin' to Memphis (that's right Lord) yeah (uh huh)
  • But dues took all my money wouldn't let me see the cards
  • I owen the boss about a hundred years for sleepin' in his backyard
  • I'm goin' to Memphis (yeah Memphis) yeah I'm goin' to Memphis (now)
  • Like a bitter weed I'm a bad seed but when that levee's thru and I am too
  • Let the honky tonk roll on come mornin' I'll be gone
  • I'm goin' to Memphis yeah Memphis
  • I never been to Chicago but it must be a mighty fine place (that's right)
  • I couldn't get past Tennessee with Mississippi all over my face (uh huh)
  • I'm goin' to Memphis (that's right Lord Memphis)
  • Well the freezin' ground at night is my own foldin' bed
  • Polk salad is my bread and meat and it will be till I'm dead
  • Well I brought me a little water in a Mr Prince Albert can
  • But the bossman caught me drinkin' it and I believe he broke my hand (hm hm)
  • They all call me crazy for sassin' Mr Scott
  • My brother was killed for a deed I did but I disremember what (yeah)
  • Well another boy is down the shovel burned him out
  • Let me stand on his body to see what the shoutin's about
  • I'm goin' to Memphis yeah I'm goin' to Memphis hmm
  • Like a bitter weed...
