I Was Young When I Left Home (Live)歌词

I was young when I left home

An' I been out ramblin' 'round

An' I never wrote a letter to my home

To my home,

Lord, to my home

An' I never wrote a letter to my home

It was just the other day

I was bringin' home my pay

When I met an' old friend I used to know

Said, your mother is dead an' gone

Every sisters all gone wrong

An' your daddy needs you home right away

I have a shirt on my back

Not a penny on my name

But I can't go home this way

This way,

Lord, Lord, Lord

An' I can't go home this way

If you miss train I'm on

Count the days I'm gone

You'll hear that whistle blow hundred miles

Hundred miles, honey baby,

Lord, Lord, Lord

An' you'll hear that whistle blow hundred mile

I've playin' on a track,

ma would come an' woop me back

On 'em trusses down by Ol' Jim Mc Kay's

When I pay the debt I owe

to the commissary store

I will pawn my watch an' chain an' go home

Go home

Lord, Lord, Lord

I will pawn my watch an' chain an' go home

Used to tell my ma sometimes

When I see them ridin' blind

Gonna make me home out in the wind

In the wind,

Lord, in the wind

Make me home out in the wind

I don't like it in the wind

I wanna go back home again
But I can't go home this way
This way,
Lord, Lord, Lord
An' I can't go home this way

I was young when I left home

An' I been out ramblin' 'round

An' I never wrote a letter to my home

To my home,

Lord, Lord, Lord

An' I never wrote a letter to my home
