Homeless Blues Songtext
von John Hammond

Rocks have been my pillow, baby, brambles have been my bed
Rocks have been my pillow, baby, brambles have been my bed
I ain′t got nowhere baby, Lord to lay my aching head

I went out on the highway, baby, I tried to flag a ride
I went out on the highway, baby, I tried to flag a ride
Nobody seemed to know me, they keep on pass me by


You know I'm ragged and I ′m dirty, people I ain't got no place to go
You know I'm ragged and I ′m dirty, people I ain′t got no place to go
I know you don't want me baby, Lord you don′t love me no more

Now take me out of this old bottom, baby before your water rise
Now take me out of this old bottom, baby before your water rise
You know I ain't got no true
religion, baby, I don′t want to be baptized
