Country Boy

You know I'm just a country boy
 And a long, long way from home
 You know what a fool country boy I am
 And a long, long way from home
 You know peoples, I can't read or write
 Peoples, please don't do me wrong
 Can you remember, baby
 Can you remember what it was you said
 Oh oh
 Can you remember what it was you said
 When I was sick and down, woman
 I needed you to rub my achin' head
 I was born in the country, baby
 Peoples, and I've never been to town
 Yes, I was born in the country
 Peoples, I've never been to town
 You know, why don't you reconsider, baby
 And I'd be layin' your burden down
 You know
 I've been having trouble ev'rywhere I go
 I've been having trouble ev'rywhere I go
 Yeah because I'm a country boy
 I've been driftin' from door to door
 I'm gonna get this freight train smokin'
 Back down the road I'm goin'
 I'm gonna get this freight train smokin'
 People, down the road I'm goin'
 You know I'm goin' back to Mississippi
 People, where I was bread and born
