That back water done rolled, tumbled down the line
Lord that back water rolled and tumbled down the line
That brown-skinned woman is the only trouble of mine
Maybe I'll go down to Galveston, get some white sand in my shoes
Or I'll go down to Brownsville and get some dirt on my shoes
Or I'll ride that train to Memphis, get rid of these L.A. blues
Yeah I've been ridin' that highway, oh all night long
I been cruisin' that highway, most all night long
And I'm just listenin' to Lemon, wondering where it all went wrong
I went to the station and I looked on the board
I went to the station babe, and I looked on the board
It says it's good times here, but it's better on down the road
If that's your mama, you better tie her to your side
Oh if that's your mama, you better tie her to your side
'Cause if she flag my train, I'm sure gonna let her ride

I come home late one night, and you're there with another man
You say I'm not good enough baby, but I'm doing the best I can
You screamed and you cried and I told him to go
He was packing all his bags and he was doing it real slow
I pulled out my gun and I put it to his head
I told him to say a prayer 'cause he was already dead
There's many times we've been alone, and many times we've cried
Plenty more shots to take before you, up and die
I held her close, and I told her it'd be okay
I grabbed my silver .44 and I blew that bitch away
The gunshot rang fast and loud, and it was time for me to go
I be goin' fast and that 12 be goin' slow

I'm gonna take their money
I'm gonna take their life
I'm goin' out west, to California's way
They won't catch us babe, if we leave today
I've got a saddle full of old
And a six-shooter on my hip
They'll never take me alive
And when I shoot I won't miss
Hear the buzzards cry
Sing on to the desert sky
Bodies all around me now
Hear the savages and their howl
They all surround me
Pistols drawn in hand
If it weren't for you woman
You know I would be a dead man

Well these evil-hearted women
No they just won't let me be
Well these evil-hearted women
No they just won't let me be
Ah you tell them one thing
And then they lie right through their teeth
Well I woke up this morning
Ain't seen my baby in so long
Well I woke up this morning
Ain't seen my baby in so long
And when I woke up this morning
All I had was gone
I been walking all day
Ain't got no shoes on my feet
I been walking all day
Ain't got no shoes on my feet
Well it's been so long
Since my baby's loving me
I hear that train
Comin' down the track
Well I heard that train
Comin' down the track
Well I'm gonna leave this town
And I ain't never comin' back
