lirik lagu nicholas payne - morristown blues
[verse 1]
well i woke up this morning
with them morristown blues
i went to talk to my mama
she said that she got ’em too
she said that living in this town
don’t cause nothing but pain
and “one of these days i’m gonna get on outta here
move to them west texas plains”
well i said “but oh mama
if you ever do leave
you’ll be leaving me lonesome
just like you wouldn’t believe
[chorus]
’cause i can’t get out of here
oh what’s a poor boy to do
when he’s dreaming of midland
but he’s got the morristown blues?”
[verse 2]
i was walking down 4th street
when i met miss louise
she studied me closely
said “could you help me please?”
i said “i suppose so
what do you need to be done?”
she said “just come with me
we’ll have a whole lot of fun”
so i said “where’re we going?”
she said “we’re headed down south”
but then she was gone again
‘fore i could open my mouth
[chorus]
to tell her i can’t get out of here
oh what’s a poor boy to do
when he’s dreaming of memphis
but he’s got the morristown blues?
[verse 3]
well if i don’t get out of here
before death takes it’s toll
i’ll be trusting in jesus
to take care of my soul
but as for my body
bury it ‘neath yonder tree
’cause i know that old willow
is the only one’ll weep for me
’cause mama gone and left me
and louise can’t be found
and i ain’t had much luck
at finding friends in this town
[chorus]
and i still can’t get out of here
oh what’s a poor boy to do
when he’s dreaming of eden
but he’s got the morristown blues?
