This Levi's that I'm wearin' have been good to me   They just won't admit they're growin' old   Though my shirt's made contract with a gutter now and then   At least it keeps my body from the cold   Thank God the folks back home in Harlan County   Can't see what success has done for me   Would you believe that kids in Harlan High School voted me most likely to successeed   Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago   If I buy the bread I can't afford the wine   Now I'm walking on the sidewalks of Chicago wishing I had lived some other time      I wasn't here too long before I met her the lady really swept me off my feet   She stayed just long enough for me to love her   And now they're sweepin' me up off the street   My mama thinks I've really hit the big time   She's written every day since I've been gone   She don't know hat 109 East Charlotte is the adress of the West Side Mission Home   Now I'm walking on the sidewalks...
