Well I wanted to ramble ever since I was a kid I'm gonna do just what my Daddy did The world started closin' in on me And I had to have a change of scenery So I started out bumin' in Ohio, Had my sights set on Mexico It just ain't as easy to catch a ride As it was before the L&N died Gotta take a little time, think about where I'm goin' Take a little time, to think about where I've been Take a little time, to hear that whistle blowin' Take a little time, be back home again Well I spent a year in Memphis, just the other day Haven't been the same since I let her slip away When will I learn to let the women be Let Ol'Memphis Red make a fool a-me Well I went to the river to throw myself in Decided to call it off 'cause I can't swim Started to throw myself before a locomotive train Had to call it off on account a-rain Gotta take a little time, think about where I'm goin' Take a little time, to think about where I've been Take a little time, to hear that whistle blowin' Take a little time, be back home again Well now what's the use in killin' me It didn't hurt so bad now don't you see The world ain't so bad after all That Ol'Memphis Red ain't gonna be my downfall I gotta take a little time, think about where I'm goin' Take a little time, to think about where I've been Take a little time, to hear that whistle blowin' Take a little time, be back home again Take a little time, be back home again
