Dick Haymes - On The Southbound lyrics
Well I woke up this morning when the cold Chicago wind
 Blew my newspaper blanket off my back
 Through my dirty broken window the grey sun filtered in
 As I dreamed about the Southbound railroad track
 I could almost hear the crickets in a sleepy cottonfield
 As daddy drove our vagon to Virgin
 But today I'd give a fortune for a twenty five cent meal
 And I wish I was a country boy again
 So let me ride on the SouthboundDick Haymes - On The Southbound - http://motolyrics.com/dick-haymes/on-the-southbound-lyrics.html
 Back to where I came from I don't care or where I am
 Let me ride on the Southbound and put me off somewhere near Birmingham
 [ guitar ]
 What happened to my vision of a mansion on a hill
 And the fame and fortune I came here to win
 I've got nothing but the roaches running cross my window sill
 And I wish I was a country boy again
 So let me ride...
