John Lee Hooker - I Was Standing By The Wayside Lyrics
Artist: John Lee Hooker
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Blues
I was standin' on the wayside
Tryin' to flag myself a ride
I was standin' on the wayside, wayside, people
And just tryin' to flag myself a ride
I didn't have no money
I was tryin' to get back home
It was stormin' and rainin', stormin' and rainin'
And the wind began to blow, oh yeah
It was stormin' and rainin'
And the rain comin' down, oh yeah, yeah
I didn't have no money
I was tryin' to get back home
That old highway looked so lonesome, so lonesome
In the evenin' when the sun goes down
You know that old highway looked so lonesome, so lonesome
In the evenin' when the sun goes down
You'll be thinkn' 'bout your little wife back home
You wanna make it back home so bad
It was thunderin' and lightenin', thunderin' and lightenin'
You know the wind began to blow
It was thunderin' and lightenin'
You know the wind began to blow
I didn't have no place, no place to lay my head
No place to lay my head, oh yeah, oh yeah
