Let Us Go
Somewhere in between Mobile and Montgomery
sittin’ in a gas station
trying to make some money
so we could go on down to the Gulf of Mexico
Let us go, let us go, let us go
Last night I dreamt about the girl that I left behind
If I was drunk she must have been
goin’ deaf and blind
and if I’m in Georgia again, I’ll get her by my side
and we will go, we will go, we will go
Someone’s lookin’ out for me
and he’s playing jokes like old coyote
but he cannot stop my wonderin’
He cannot stop my wanderin’
Fixed my eye against the sky, was worried ‘bout tornados
but I spent the night in a trailer park
just a mile up the road
and if I could survive that without a cyclone attack
I would go, I would go, and I would go
I would go, and I would go, and I would go
I would go, and I would go, and I would go
I would go, and I would go, and I would go

Is it just me or does the first chorus on the RUTT version sound more like “And he’s playin’ jokes and he’s actin’ awful mean”?

I second the actin’ awful mean
December 30th, 2008
