lirik lagu whitey morgan and the 78's - hard scratch pride
[verse 1]
i was born down south kentucky
a hard scratch holler i call my home
h-ll, my mama begged me, “boy, don’t you ramble”
my mama begged me, “oh boy, don’t you roam”
[verse 2]
when i left that holler i was just a boy
flat-broke and busted and h-ll-bent to make it on my own
h-ll, i couldn’t go back home
i could hear that train, it moans a lonesome song
[chorus]
and i’m headin’ up to detroit on a freight train, mama, i’m’a finally be a man
i been workin’ seven days buildin’ them chevrolets, i’m doin’ the best i can
and i met a little city girl and i’m gonna make her my bride
but don’t worry, mama, i ain’t lost my hard scratch pride
[verse 3]
twenty years have p-ssed now since i hit the road
i can hear the whippoorwill, h-ll, the dogwoods they callin’ me home
but mama, she’s long gone
and i can hear ol’ hank, yeah he gonna moan me that lonesome whistle song
[chorus]
and i’m headin’ up to detroit on a freight train, mama, i’m’a finally be a man
i been workin’ seven days buildin’ them chevrolets, i’m doin’ the best i can
and i met a little city girl and i’m gonna make her my bride
but don’t worry, mama, i ain’t lost my hard scratch pride
