Born in Grenada

[Verse] Born in Grenada, Mississippi, U.S.A But I'm splittin' town this afternoon and a-headin' for L.A 'Cause my baby done left me for a fast-talkin' man But I am bound and determined, get her back if I can [Refrain] I'm gonna jump a freight, yeah, yeah I just can't wait to get her home [Verse] Well bye-bye Mississippi and a-so long cotton fields I told my baby not to, but she went against my will Went for all that trash 'bout them big city lights Now she's a-rollin' hard direction, told her everything'll be alright [Refrain] I'm gonna jump a freight, yeah, yeah I just can't wait to get her home [Verse] A-mister GG-driver you can make an extra ten If you pour on the steam and make this train run like the wind 'Cause I got to get to L.A. 'fore the sun goes down I'll be sniffin' for my baby like a hungry bloodhound [Refrain] I'm gonna jump a freight, yeah, yeah I just can't wait to get her home [Outro] Oh, won'tcha come on home now? You know that I've been a-waitin' for a long long time, gonna get her back where she belongs I said, I've been a-waitin' for a long long time, gonna get her back where she belongs Oh, come on home, won't you come on home?
