Kenny Price - Southern Bound lyrics

I'm a walkin' southern bound down the highway Cars and buses and the big trucks pa** me by I walk awhile then I thumb they must think I'm a bum For no one will give this country boy a ride I left to get a job in that big city cause Lucy's dad said son don't hang around I got her letter in the mail today and he can't keep me away And tonight this lovesick boy is southern bound Can't afford a ticket on that Big Gray Dog Where I'm a goin' they don't know a freight train sound I'm a long way from home cold and hungry and all alone Tonight this country boy is southern bound [ guitar ] Now I know they'll all be glad to see me it's been so long since I left to roam I can hear my mama cry as she kissed her boy goodbye Tonight this country boy is a headed home I've got just enough left to buy some coffee I'll spend that if this road goes through the town Take some money if I grind all I have left is my pride If I have to walk I will I'm southern bound Can't afford a ticket... Tonight this country boy is southern bound
