f I ever get lucky mama. Win my train fare home. If I get lucky babe. Win my train fare home. I'm goin' back to the border. Where I'm better known. Oh your calf is hungry mama.
Don't care how long you gone. I don't care how long you staying. But, good kind treatment. Gonna bring you home someday. But someday baby. You ain't gonna trouble poor me anymore.
The way you wear your hat. The way you sip your tea. The memory of all that. No, no they can't take that away from me. The way your smile just beams. The way you sing off key.
Won't you stop and take. A little time out with me. Just take five. Stop your busy day. And take the time out. To see if I'm alive. . Though I'm going out of my way.
I loved you and left you. And kissed a hundred more. But til I met you. Oh, I never knew. What I was looking for. . (CHORUS). Whoa, you've got the loving touch.
That's alright, that's alright.... My soul gonna sit up in the kingdom, that's alright. . Some say Peter , some say Paul. But one God made us all. and my soul gonna sit up in the kingdom, that's alright.
