Down South

Down South - Dock Boggs

I'm a-going to the station

Going to catch the fastest train

That goes;

I'm a-going back South

Where the weather suits my clothes

I'm going back South

If I wear out 99 pair of shoes;

'Cause I'm broken-hearted

I've got those down South blues

I was reared in a country

Where the snow it never fell

I'm a-going back South

If I don't do so well

Oh my mama told me

And my daddy told me too;

"Don't you go off honey

Let the man make a fool out of you "
