Sittin` here a thousand miles from nowhere

In this one room country little shack

Sittin` here a thousand miles from nowhere

In this one room country little shack

Lord, my only worldly per`cession

Is a raggi-ly old `leven foot cotton sack



I wake up ev`ry night around midnight

Peoples, I just can`t sleep no mo`

I wake up ev`ry night around midnight

Peoples, I just can`t sleep no mo`

Only crickets and frogs to keep me comp`ny

And the wind howlin` around my do`



(piano)



I`m gonna leave here early in the mo`nin`

I`m `bout to go out of my mind

I`m gonna leave so early in the mo`nin`

I`m `bout to go out of my mind

I`m gonna find me some kind of a companion

Even if she dumb, deaf, cripple and blind.
