A Long Way from Texas - Lighnin' Hopkins

I come all the way from Texas

Just to shake glad hands with you

I come all the way from Texas

Just to shake glad hands with you

Yes, but when I seed in your smiling face

I didn’t know just what to do

I ought to been knowing these things for a great long time

I ought to been knowing these things for a great long time

You know it take me for quite awhile

'Fore I made it up in my mind

Got to play it a minute

I’m gonna tell all my friends just as soon as I go back home

I’m gonna tell all my friends just as soon as I go back home

Know they all gonna get on and wonder what is I been waiting on
