Avalon Blues Lyrics
Avalon Blues - Mississippi John Hurt
Got to new york this morning
Just about half past nine
Got to new york this morning
Just about half past nine
Hollering one morning in avalon
Couldn't hardly keep from crying
Avalon my hometown
Always on my mind
Avalon my hometown
Always on my mind
Pretty mama's in avalon
Want me there all the time
When the train left avalon
Throwing kisses and waving at me
When the train left avalon
Throwing kisses and waving at me
Says come back daddy
Stay right here with me
Avalon's a small town
Have no great big range
Avalon's a small town
Have no great big range
Pretty mama's in avalon
They sure will spend your change
New york's a good town
But it's not for mine
New york's a good town
But it's not for mine
Going back to avalon near
Where I have a pretty mama all the time
