Country Boy

[Verse 1]
You know I'm just a country boy
And a long, long way from home
You know me as a poor country boy
And I'm a long, long way from home
You know peoples, I can't read or write
People please don't do me wrong

[Verse 2]
Can you remember, baby?
Can you remember the words you said?
Oh can you remember the words you said?
When I was sick and down, woman
I needed you to rub my aching head

[Verse 4]
I was born in the country, baby
People said I've never been to town
Yes, I was born in the country
Peoples, I never been to town
You know, why don't you reconsider, baby?
Stop and lay your burden down

[Verse 5]
You know I've been having trouble everywhere I go
I been having trouble everywhere I go
Yes, because I'm a country boy
I've been drifting from door to door

[Verse 6]
I'm gonna catch a freight train smokin'
Back down the road, I'm gone
I'm gonna catch the freight train smokin'
People, down the road, I'm gone
You know I am going back to Mississippi
People, where I was bred and born
