The old man paid no mind to color cause he knew that I'd been down and out
|
Old Joe said that I was a soul brother the things I been singin' about
|
He liked like I played my old guitar he sat by beside me the same
|
Together we hung out an old timy blues hmm hmm hmm hmm
|
Oh we sing aside a railroad track for people have nothing to lose
|
I'm a son of a gambler who's luck never came and a white man singin' the blues
|
|
We both done a heap of hard livin' and hard to discribing the song
|
But the blues was one thing we both understood and the old man hummed right along
|
Oh we sing aside a railroad track...
