I lied down last night mama, I tried to take my red
I know my mind got a Ramblin like a wild geese in the west
Ain't but the one thing thats like to change my mind
I started in new york, l lived a holy crime
I sure cant sleep mamma, I sure can't rest at night
But when i think of my drinking woman, sure keeps my appetite
Im goin to tell my baby, love when im goin home
I'll be in the heart of New York only if l leave you alone
