Little Girl in Rome Songtext
von Uncle Sinner

I got a letter this morning from that girl in Rome
Said she got something for me, she gonna bring it back home
I got a letter this morning

I went down to the depot, I act like some child
Said to the ticket agent, "what train must I ride?"
I got the worried blues, I can′t be satisfied

Well I'm going way away to worry you off my mind
′Cause you keep me worried and bothered all the time
Well I'm going way 'way to...

I got something to tell you just before I go
It ain′t nothing, baby, turn your lamp down low
I got something to tell you before I go


I went down to the railroad, I look down the tracks
Thought about my little good girl, come easing on back

Yonder come my baby, coming down the line
With her headlights just shining light, coaches all behind
Now come my baby...

Well I had one good girl, she strayed way away
I didn′t think my little good girl, do me this way
I didn't think my baby do me this way

Well if I could holler like a mountain jack
I would go up on the mountain & call my baby back
Well if I could holler like a mountain jack...

Mama, she caught the Southern, daddy rode the blinds
She said "baby, you can′t quit me, ain't no need of you trying"
Said "baby you can′t quit me, ain't no need of trying"


I got a letter this morning from that girl in Rome
Said she got something for me, she gonna bring it back home
