Testo Good Ole Boys Like Me - Ray Scott
Testo della canzone Good Ole Boys Like Me (Ray Scott), tratta dall'album Roots Sessions, Vol. I
When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my
head
Then Daddy came in to kiss his little man
With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should
know
Then he'd stagger a little as he went out the
door
I can still hear the soft southern winds in the
live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to
me
Hank and Tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me
Nothing makes a sound in the night like the
wind does
But you ain't afraid if you're washed in the
blood like I was
The smell of cape jasmine thru the window
screen
John R and the Wolfman kept me company
By the light of the radio by my bed
With Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head
When I was in school I ran with a kid down the
street
But I watched him burn himself up on Bourbon
and speed
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock
news
When I was eighteen Lord I hit the road
But it really doesn't matter how far I go
