Born In Grenada

(앨범: Spotlight On Nilsson - 1966)

Born in Grenada, Mississippi, U.S.A.
But I'm splitting town this afternoon and a-heading for L.A.
'Cause my baby done left me for a fast-talking man
But I am bound and determined get her back if I can
I'm gonna jump a freight yeah yeah
I just can't wait to get her home

Well bye-bye Mississippi and a-so long cotton fields
I told my baby not to but she went against my will
Went for all that trash 'bout them big city lights
Now she's a-rolling hard direction, told her everything'll be alright
I'm gonna jump a freight yeah yeah
I just can't wait to get her home

A-mister GG-driver you can make an extra ten
If you pour on the steam and make this train run like the wind
'Cause I got to get to L.A. 'fore the sun goes down
I'll be sniffing for my baby like a hungry bloodhound
I'm gonna jump a freight yeah yeah
I just can't wait to get her home

Oh won't'chu come on home now?
You know that I've been a-waiting for a long long time
Gonna get her back where she belongs
I said I've been a-waiting for a long long time
Gonna get her back where she belongs
Oh come on home now!
Won't you come on home?
