I'll Catch You
My Mother moved away
and I been gone now for so long
How long I cannot say
and I am left to wonder
What I'm doing here
Guess I got to pay for
the sins of all my years
I got to pay
for the sins
of all my years
I been talking to the lord
Sweet Jesus let me be
and please keep the devil
far away from me
Cause I have outrun my fears
Guess I got to pay for the sins of all my years
But I won't be afraid
and I will find a way
No, I won't be afraid
of the sins of all my years
If I should live to be half a century
My Head's in Mississippi
You know I'm wild about you, baby,
been keepin' me from my sleep at night.
You know I'm hung up on you, little doll,
you just don't treat your daddy right.
You know you crazy when you get drunks, you be talkin' all out your head.
You're acting mighty strange about me, sayin' those things you said.
I'm just wild about you, baby,
been keepin' me from my sleeps at night.
You know I'm hung up on you, little darlin',
you just don't treat your daddy right, oh yeah.
D'ya know I came home last night and I looked down on the floor,
I saw a fine pair of alligators, somethin' I never had before.
But I'm wild about you, baby,
been keepin' me from my sleeps at night.
You know I'm hung up on you, little darlin',
you just don't treat your daddy right.
Said, now honey if you don't stop messin' round with me,
try'n to make me out a dumbbell, somethin' I ain't never gonna be.
I'm still wild about you, baby,
you been keepin' me from my sleeps at night.
You know I'm hung up on you, little doll,
but you just don't treat your daddy right.
