Lincoln County

I've gotta get a train
Take me back home again
See my daddy
Momma wants to see me too

I'm gonna see my momma
Looking through the window
At the station in the morning
Been a few mornings since I've been home

I've been doing wrong
But now I'm going home
So come on, girls
You better put your best boots on

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
Won't know which way to go
I'm gonna find all those pretty girls
I'm gonna find them all

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
You gonna lift the lid off hell
Drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell
Then gonna shout for more

Well, I bought a new suit
At the best pawn broker's shop
Bought my ticket
From money that I saved in jail

I got a boot lace tie
I got for my pa
I got a head scarf, fair
I got for my momma that she won't wear

I've been doing wrong
But now I'm going home
So come on, girls
You better put your best boots on

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
Won't know which way to go
I'm gonna find all those pretty girls
I'm gonna find them all

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
You gonna lift the lid off hell
Drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell
Then gonna shout for more

La la lala lala la lala lala la lala
La lalalalala la la

Then I've gotta get a train
Take me back home again
See my daddy
Momma wants to see me too

Cause when I get me back to Lincoln County
You gonna lift the lid off hell
Drink some beer, gonna live it swell
Then I'm gonna shout for more

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
You gonna lift the lid off hell
Drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell
Then gonna shout for more

Cause when I get home to Lincoln County
Don't know which way to go
I'm gonna find all those pretty girls
I'm gonna find them all
