Goin’ to Brownsville Lyrics
Now, I'm goin' back to Brownsville, take that right hand road
Now, I'm goin' back to Brownsville take that right hand road
Lord, I ain't gon' stop walkin' 'til I get in sweet mama's door
Now, the girl I'm lovin' got the great, long, curly hair
Now, the girl I'm lovin' got the great, long, curly hair
And her mama and her papa they sho' don't allow me there
If you catch my duffel hangin' upside your wall
If you catch my duffel
Now, you know by that, I really need my ashes hauled
Now, what you gon' do, when yo' doughroller gone?
Now, what you gonna do, babe, your doughroller gone?
Go in your kitchen and cook until she comes
