Texas Bound Blues by Margaret Thornton

Margaret ThorntonTexas Bound Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My daddy got ways like the lighthouse on the sea
Hey, lighthouse on the sea
Every time he smiles, he throws his light on me
[Verse 2]
If I ever call you, honey, and you refuse to come
Hey, and you refuse to come
Hot springs water sure won't help you none
[Verse 3]
I love my daddy better than I love myself
Hey, better than I love myself
And I don't want him to love nobody else
[Verse 4]
I'm going back to Texas and I'm going to stay
Hey, and I'm going to stay
I can't see why these men treat me this-a way
[Verse 5]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
'Cause I had him all night and I got him all day today
[Verse 6]
Blues came down my alley and stopped right in my door
And stopped right in my door
And it made me feel like I ain't never felt before
