I'm headed southboung long way to go down
Where the weather don't suit my clothes
Police can't catch me Lord how they tried
They always miss me when I'm passing by I'm passing by

I threw all my things and I faked life
Down one last dollars boys and that is all I got
Well  I found all my friens just so could say goodbye
I couldn't hold it down good god how I tried
Some got religion and they just cant win
Well I take to hard drinking and I push my feelings in
I'm leaving town and all people that I know
Well I'm [bad word] as [bad word] tonight and that freight trade my home

I'm headed southbound long way to go down
Where the weather don't suit my clothes
Police cant catch me Lord how they tried
They always miss me when I'm passing by I'm passing by

Rains' pouring hard makes no stearin sing
900 more miles and I'll be doing just fine
And if the moon and the stars are the only shelter that I know
I guess I got this whole world and you to call my home call my home
you to call my home call my home
you to call my home call my home
