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
