You never get too big You never get too heavy you never get too cool That you stop payin' your dues Oh yeah! What can a poor boy do? You better go back to you mama She'll take care of you
Lost your wife Lost your son Stay out drinkin' 'till the morning comes Oh yeah! What can a poor boy do? You better go back to you mama She'll take care of you
Country girl take my hand Lead me through this diseased land I am tired i am weak i am worn I have stole i have sinned Oh my soul is unclean Country girl got to keep on keeping on Crazy women Mess your head Wake up drunk & bleeding In some strange bed Oh yeah! What can a poor boy do?
You better go back to your mama She'll take care of you
Country girl take my hand Lead me through this diseased land I am tired i am weak i am worn I have stole i have sinned Oh my soul is unclean Country girl got to keep on keeping on You gotta keep on keepin' on You gotta keep on keepin' strong You gotta keep on keepin' on When you Got the riot city blues
One thing i have to say Before i have to go Be careful with your seed You will reap just what you sow Oh yeah! What can a poor boy do? You better go back to your mama She'll take care of you
Country girl take my hand Lead me through this diseased land I am tired i am weak i am worn I have stole i have sinned Oh my soul is unclean Country girl got to keep on keeping on
