Well it's lonesome in this old town everybody puts me down

I'm a face without a name just a walking in the rain

I'm going back to Houston Houston Houston

I got holes in both of my shoes I'm a walking case of the blues

Saw a dollar yesterday but the wind blew it away

I'm going back to Houston Houston Houston

[ harmonica - ac.guitar ]

I haven't eaten in about a week I'm so hugry when I walk I squeak

Nobody calls me friend it's sad the shape I'm in

I'm going back to Houston Houston Houston

Got a girl waitin' there for me where at least she said she'd be

I got a home and a good warm bed and a feather pillow for my head

I'm going back to Houston Houston Houston

Well it's lonesome in this old town everybody puts me down

I'm a face without a name yeah I'm a walkin' in the rain

I'm going back to Houston Houston Houston
