I'm going to the station Going to catch the fastest train that goes I'm a-going back South Where the weather suits my clothes I'm going 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 the country Where the snow it never fell I'm a-going 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 out of you
