One day I went and left my home out in the West. Said I was headed for the Silver City. All along the line, I was dreaming all the time. Dreaming of the shining Silver City.
Mighty River, Muddy as Sin. Troubled Waters, Like the shape I'm in. . Would you open your Screen. Let a poor boy in. If I come back Home. Off the Streets of Sin.
Sister, soak the beans. I'll be comin Home to Chop the Onion. Mama, light the stove. It'll take a while for the cornbread to get done. I'll be comin' home.
Well you don't need a lawyer. You don't need a judge. You don't need no Race Horse Haynes. To Prosecute my love. . Sue me!. Sue me, Sue!. Come on now sue me!.
Mighty River, Muddy as Sin. Troubled Waters, Like the shape I'm in. . Would you open your Screen. Let a poor boy in. If I come back Home. Off the Streets of Sin.
So you wanna be rich.... You want the women to swoon. When you walk in the room. And they gaze into your diamond ring.. You want the men to stare. As you rant and swear.
CHORUS. Sister, soak the beans. I'll be comin Home to Chop the Onion. Mama, light the stove. It'll take a while for the cornbread to get done. I'll be comin' home.
One day I went and left my home out in the West. Said I was headed for the Silver City. All along the line I was dreaming all the time. Dreaming of the shining Silver City.
Saint Valentine drove a red Continental. With a headlight out and a dent in the side. He swore it wasn't his, it was only a rental. But he drove it every single night.
