Going To The Nation by Priscilla Stewart Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Going to the Nation but I can't take you
I can’t take you
Lord, I can't take you
For there's nothing in the Nation that a monkey man can do
[Verse 2]
Can’t ride no bronco, you can't collar no steer
Collar no steer
I say ride no steer
So you see, sweet papa, mama's gonna leave you here
[Verse 3]
I'm going, papa, just you wait and see
Wait and see
I mean you'll see
Your wringing and your twisting won't have no effect on me
[Verse 4]
Going to the nation to have my hambone boiled
My hambone boiled
My hambone boiled
All these men in Chicago gonna let my good hambone spoil
[Verse 5]
I used to love you but I'm leaving you now
Leaving you now
Quitting you now
I hate to leave you, but I'm going anyhow
[Verse 6]
The sun will shine in my back door someday
My back door somеday
In my door someday
The south winds are coming and blow my bluеs away
Going to the Nation but I can't take you
I can’t take you
Lord, I can't take you
For there's nothing in the Nation that a monkey man can do
[Verse 2]
Can’t ride no bronco, you can't collar no steer
Collar no steer
I say ride no steer
So you see, sweet papa, mama's gonna leave you here
[Verse 3]
I'm going, papa, just you wait and see
Wait and see
I mean you'll see
Your wringing and your twisting won't have no effect on me
[Verse 4]
Going to the nation to have my hambone boiled
My hambone boiled
My hambone boiled
All these men in Chicago gonna let my good hambone spoil
[Verse 5]
I used to love you but I'm leaving you now
Leaving you now
Quitting you now
I hate to leave you, but I'm going anyhow
[Verse 6]
The sun will shine in my back door someday
My back door somеday
In my door someday
The south winds are coming and blow my bluеs away
