Cuttin’ Out Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

Hey, hey, hey!
I′m leavin', leavin′, leavin'
Won't be back no more
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Cuttin′ out this mornin′
Won't be back no more
Hey, hey!
Won′t be back no more

My woman told me, "Hit the road Johnny
Don't come back no more"
Packed my suitcase
Went on down the line
I got down, to the station
With suitcase in my hand


The train was leavin′
Oh, the train would leave, the train was leavin'
I said, "Hold the train conductor, I ain′t got the time
Get a ticket, I got money in my hand"
Paid my fare, the train started movin'
Paid my fare, when the train got movin'
Oh, don′t stop rollin′ 'til the whole state′s outta sight
Whole state!
Outta sight
Lord, Lord, Lord
I feel so bad

Hey!

I was sittin' way down inside
I was sittin′ there cryin', cryin′
The train was movin', the train was movin'
Conductor told me, said, "Johnny, stop cryin′, stop cryin′"
Gon' take you ′way from here
Down the line, down the line
Down the line, down the line
Whoo!
Stop cryin', stop cryin′, stop cryin', stop cryin′
Taking you away from here, down the line
Ooh
