Never get to bed
Never get to heavy
Never get to come until you start payin' your dues
Yeah
What can a poor boy do?
Better go back to your mamma
She'll take care of you
Lost your wife
Lost your son
Stay out drinking 'til the morning comes
Yeah
What can a poor boy do?
Better go back to your mamma
She'll take care of you
Chorus:
Country girl
Take my hand
Lead me through this deceased land
I am tired
I have way
I am worn
I have stolen
I have sinned
Oh my soul
It's unclean
Country girl
Gotta keep on keep it on
Crazy women
Mess your head
Wake up drunk and beaten
In some strange bed
Yeah
What can a poor boy do?
Better go back to your mamma
She'll take care of you
Chorus
Gotta keep on keep it on
Gotta keep on keep strong
When you
Got the riot city blues
What do you have to say?
Before I have to go
Be careful with your seed
You'll reap just what you sow
Yeah
What can a poor boy do?
What can I do?
Better go back to your mamma
She'll take care of you
One last time
Chorus
Country girl
Gotta keep on keepin' on
