"Hobo Kinda Man"

"Hobo Kinda Man"


Around the time of the second world war
A new kind of man came through the door
I ain't looking for food
I'm looking for work
Not afraid to sweat - digging in the dirt
I ain't looking for a hand-out
But I'm willing to lend a hand to the man that pays me
Yes I am

Mr. Roosevelt, he understands I'm a hobo kinda man

I've been ridin' this train
I've been up all night
I'll be swinging that hoe before daylight
When the next box car comes along
I'll jump it and fight ya and call it my home
When the money runs out, so do I
I'll be ridin' these rails 'till times change and kill me
Yes I will

I never know where I am, hey, I'm a hobo kinda man
That's what I am

Those steel wheels-a-rollin'
Somewhere I feel me towing, I know
I can hear that whistle blowin'
Come tomorrow morning
I'll be gone
Yeah
Oh! I'm a hobo kinda man

I'm always leaving my wife and kids behind
Workin' somewhere on down the line
Every night I sleep in a different town
I never know, honey, where I'm bound

Livin' out of a suitcase
I changed from a train to a silver eagle
But I'm getting all I can
I'm a modern day hobo kinda man

These steel wheels-a-rollin'
Somewhere I feel me towing
I can hear that whistle blowin'
Come tomorrow morning
This old boy be gone
Yeah
I'm a hobo kinda man
That's what I am
I'm a hobo man
A movin' on down the line
A hobo man
Yeah, that's what I am

I'm a hobo man

"Home Is Where The Heart Is"

"Home Is Where The Heart Is"


I've always lived my life like a gypsy
I can't imagine myself settlin' down
So please don't ask me to give up this life I lead
'Cause I love to feel those wheels go 'round and 'round

I can see it inside
It's my heart that sees, not my eyes
And if you listen close I'll tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you

There's a cold wind blowin' and you know it's almost midnight
You never dreamed it would be this hard lovin' a music man
But this iron horse on which I ride I'm closer it's true
And it's just as hard for me as it is for you

I can see it inside
It's my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close I'll tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you

In my life I'm always on the run
Livin' one day at a time
Hold on a little longer
I don't know where I'm gonna end up
Or where I'll go

I can see it inside
It's my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close I'll tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home ...

I can see it inside
It's my heart that sees not my eyes
And if you listen close I'll tell you why
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is at home with you

Home is where the heart is
Oh ,my home is where my heart is
Oh, my home is where my heart is

"Homegrown"

"Homegrown"


She’s like fine shine out of a steel mine
She ain’t afraid to get dirty – have a good time
She’s kind of backwoods
She’s kind of psycho
She likes to ride fast on her motorcycle

No I can’t forget how she tastes on my lips
She’s as good as it gets
I like a little bit of Homegrown
She gets me stoned
Oh in her short dress – yeah I’m a mess
I like to get her all alone
She really turns me on
Yeah in her barefeet – sippin’ sweet tea
A little Homegrown

She’s got a gun rack
Knows how to throw ‘em back
She’ll run the table but you’ll never get your money back
She makes me crazy – but she’s my baby
She knows that Jesus is the only one who saves me

No I can’t forget how she tastes on my lips
She’s as good as it gets I like a little bit of Homegrown
She gets me stoned
Oh in her short dress – yeah I’m a mess
I like to get her all alone
She really turns me on
Yeah in her barefeet – sippin’ sweet tea
A little Homegrown

No I can’t forget how she tastes on my lips
She’s as good as it gets I like a little bit of Homegrown
She gets me stoned
Oh in her short dress – yeah I’m a mess I like to get her all alone
She really turns me on
Yeah in her barefeet – sippin’ sweet tea
A little Homegrown A little Homegrown.

"Honey Hole"

"Honey Hole"


There's a little place down in Jackson County
Right off the river road
If you wanna take a ride to the end of the rainbow
Find yourself a pot of gold
Everybody asks me where I'm goin'
Yeah everybody wants to know
Your sister says she wants to come along with me
I know she really wants to go
Yeah I know she really wants to go

Down, Down, Down, Down
Down is where I wanna go
Down, Down, Down, Down
Down to the Honey Hole

If you wanna check it out on a hot summer night
Climb over the garden wall
Grab your little baby and hold her tight
Underneath the sugar falls
Underneath the sugar falls

Down, Down, Down, Down
Down is where I wanna go
Down, Down, Down, Down
To the Honey Hole
To the Honey Hole!

Sugarcane grows wild in the fields
Like corn sticky yellow sweet
Late at night you can hear 'em all buzzin'
Searchin' for the Queen bee
Callin' for the Queen bee

Down, Down, Down, Down
Down is where I wanna go
Down, Down, Down, Down
To the Honey Hole
To the Honey Hole!
To the Honey Hole
To the Honey Hole
To the Honey Hole

"Honky-Tonk, Night-Time Man"

"Honky-Tonk, Night-Time Man"


Little bit of Bakersfield

I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I get my rest in the day time
Do my runnin' around at night

I had the blues this morning
Had the blues all day today
I had the blues this morning
Had the blues all day today
Well I wish a tornado
Come and blow my blues away, away
That's what I said, take 'em away

Sounds like Roy
Yeah

And then my heart starts beatin'
When that sun starts sinkin' low
Well my heart starts beatin'
When that sun starts sinkin' low
When the shadows fall
I know its time for me to go

Billy Powell on piano

Oh Barry, play me some dobro

I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I'm a honky tonk night time man
I can't stand no light
I get my rest in the day time
I do my runnin' around, round at night
I get my rest in the day time
Gets that old love sweet stuff at night

"I Ain't The One"

"I Ain't The One"


Well, I'll tell you plainly baby
What I plan to do
'Cause I may be crazy baby
But I ain't no fool
Your daddy's rich, mama
You're overdue
But I ain't the one, baby
Been messing with you
Got bells in your mind, mama
So won't you pardon me
I think its time for me to move along
I do believe

Now you're talking jive, woman
When you say to me
Your daddy's gonna take us in baby
'N take care of me
You know and I know, woman
I ain't the one
I never hurt you sweet heart
I never pulled my gun
Got bells in your mind, baby
So won't you pardon me?
I think its time for me to move along
I do believe
Time for me to put my boots out in the street baby
Are you ready boots -- walk on

All right there missy, let me tell you a thing or two
Now you're talking jive, woman
When you say to me
Your daddy's gonna take us in baby
'N take care of me
When you know and I know, woman
I ain't the one
That ain't my idea -- uh unh -- of having fun
Got rings in your eyes lady
So won't you pardon me
I think its time for me to move along
I do believe
I must be in the middle of some kind of conspiracy

"I Got The Same Old Blues"

"I Got The Same Old Blues"


Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
Yes I heard the news its the same old blues again

Well I wrote you a letter, must have read it wrong
Stood at the doorway and baby you was gone
Took a lot of courage
To let the telephone ring
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

Well you gave me the business, though I didn't mind
'Cause I got a lot of patience, Lord got a lot of time
Its the same old story
Tell me where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again
Here come my blues

Gonna find me a mountain and gonna hide out
Ain't talkin' to you babe, Lord I ain't comin' back
Well I heard that rumor, tell where will it end
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

Have you heard that rumor that's goin' around
My baby's got a man, lord way across town
Its the same old story
Tell me where will this end
Yes I heard the news its the same old blues again
I got the same old blues, same old blues again

I got the blues... same old blues

"I Know A Little"

"I Know A Little"


Yes sir

Well the bigger the city, well the brighter the lights
The bigger the dog, well the harder the bite
I don't know where you been last night
But I think mama, you ain't doin' right

[Chorus]
Say I know a little
I know a little about it
I know a little
I know a little 'bout it
I know a little 'bout love
And baby I can guess the rest

Well now I don't read that daily news
'Cause it ain't hard to figure
Where people get the blues
They can't dig what they can't use
If they stick to themselves
They'd be much less abused

[Chorus]

Play me a little, oh yeah
Yeah

Well if you want me to be your only man
Said listen up mama, teach you all I can
Do right baby, by your man
Don't worry mama, teach you all I can

[Chorus]

Well I know a little 'bout love
Baby I want your best

 

[fox69]

"I Need You"

"I Need You"


Ain't no need to worry
Ain't no use to cry
'Cause I'll be comin' home soon
To keep you satisfied
You know I get so lonely
That I feel I can't go on
And it feels so good inside, baby
Just to call you on the telephone
I said...

[Chorus]
Oh baby, I love you
What more can I say
Oh baby, I need you
I miss you more everyday

I woke up early this morning
And sun came shining down
And it found me wishin' and hopin'
Mama, you could be around
Well ,you know that I need you
More than the air that I breathe
And I guess I'm just trying to tell you woman
Oh, what you mean to me

[Chorus]

I try to tell you I love you
In each and every way
I'm trying to tell you I need you
Much more than a piece of leg

[Chorus]

Oh baby, I love you
What more can I say
Oh baby I need your sweet lovin
I miss you more every day

"I Never Dreamed"

"I Never Dreamed"


My daddy told me always be strong son
Don't you ever cry
You find the pretty girls and then you love them
Then you say goodbye
I never dreamed that you would leave me
But now you're gone
I never dreamed that I would miss you
Woman won't you come back home

I never dreamed that you could hurt me
And leave me blue
I've had a thousand, maybe more
But never one like you
I never dreamed I could feel so empty
But now I'm down
I never dreamed that I would beg you
Woman I need you now

It seems to me I took your love for granted
It feels to me that this time I was wrong, so wrong
Oh Lord now I feel so lonely
I say woman won't you come back home

I tried to do what my daddy taught me
But I think he knew
Someday that I would find one woman like you
I never dreamed that it could feel so good, Lord
That two could be one
I never knew about sweet love
So woman won't you come back home
Oh baby won't you come back home
