Stackolee Lyrics - Woody Guthrie

The end of the summer, down in New Orleans 

Should've called, got caught up in the scene 

Ain't nothin' wrong, ain't a damn thing right 

Gonna be comin' home but baby, not tonight 

The reason I'm stayin' is every thing's swayin' 

It feels too good to leave 

Pay all the bullshit, send me the receipts 

I don't know where I'll be 

The bayou's callin', the gypsy's out tonight 

French quarter lamps are burnin', lamps are burning bright 

Now I'm the kind of man, that will throw caution to the wind, all night long 

I'll be here 'til the end, the caravan awaits me in a place within my mind 

Wish you could be here, I guess another time, oh another time
