[00:11.79]Well, out of Southern Illinois.
[00:14.71]Come a down home country boy.
[00:18.00]He's gonna make it in the city
[00:19.87]Playin' guitar in the studio.
[00:23.43]Well he hadn't been there an hour,
[00:26.32]When he met a Broadway flower,
[00:29.70]You know she took him for his money
[00:31.40]And she left him in a cheap hotel.
[00:35.22]Oh, well, it's easy for you to see
[00:37.81]That that country boy is me
[00:40.83]Saying "And how am I gonna ever
[00:42.39]break the news to the folks back home?"
[00:46.73]Well, I was gonna be a great success,
[00:49.42]Things sure ended up a mess,
[00:52.78]But in the process I got messed up too.
[00:58.18]"Hello Mamma and Dad I had to call collect“
[01:01.18]'Cause I ain't got a cent to my name.
[01:04.28]Well I'm sleepin' in the hotel doorway,
[01:07.08]And tonight they say it's gonna rain.
[01:09.65]And if you'd only send me some money
[01:13.12]I'll be back on my feet again,
[01:16.32]Send it in care of the Sunday Mission
[01:19.25]Box number ten.10

[01:30.27]They're still worryin' 'bout their boy.
[01:33.52]But this boy's goin' home soon's he get's the fare.
[01:39.22]Because as soon as I got my bread
[01:41.97]I got a pipe upside my head.
[01:45.23]You know they left me in an alley,
[01:46.74]Took my money and my guitar, too.
