When I was young, I stayed
I didn't do no midnight creeping
When I was young, I stayed in line
Didn't do no midnight creeping
Let me tell you, it wasn't for sweeping
Didn't learn nothing from a book
No, I never took a lesson
I didn't learn nothing from a book
No, I never, never took a lesson
When it comes to the Blues
I do my own kind of lesson
It's gone deep down in my soul
It's gone deep down in my soul
I get like an old hound dog
Playing on a rabbit's hole
You just hope some day they do
You can't pick how they remember you
You just hope some day they do
But I still got more to say
It's gone deep down in my soul
It's gone deep down in my soul
I get like an old hound dog
Playing on a rabbit's hole
