Talkin' 'bout jumping jim

Talkin' 'bout a mud slide slim

Don't you know that a fish got to swim

Don't a goose got to fly high

Little dog got to die

And i'm goin' home

Woh, don't you know

Woh, don't you know



Talkin' 'bout a life on the street

Gonna think about an itch in my feet

Can't you hand me down them highway shoes

Lord knows i'm talkin' 'bout the walkin' blues

I got the rockin' pneumonia blues

And i'm headed home, bye-bye

Woh, don't you know

Woh, don't you know



Listen here now, don't you come 'round

Talkin' bout over yonder

Bound to wake up the walkin' man in me

And i'm bound to wanderin'

Hey now, talkin' all about 'spooning into bone

Looking just like sherlock holmes

Looking for a needle in a haystack

Seein' and eatin' lots of fatback

Talkin' 'bout a railroad track

And i'm going home, goodbye

Woh, don't you know

Woh, don't you know

Woh, don't you know



You oughta know

You oughta know

You oughta know

You oughta know like a fish in the stream

Oughta know like a leaf on the tree

Oughta know like a boat in the sea.
