when I die lord wont you put me up on that train   when I die lord wont you put my soul up on a train   wont you send it southbound give it a cool bluesman name   Ive been lost out on those back roads so many times I've gone blind   well and losing faith in my family had drove me right out my damn mind       chorus:   but on the south side of heaven wont you take me home   cuz i've been broke down in Texas so long it's getting cold      Well I've been a desperado in West Texas so long I need a change   and in ten long years this old place aint seen a drop of rain   and that wind blows everyday just like a desert snow   like a lost bound train running on cocaine and outta control       (chorus)       well those Louisiana byways and those lonesome Texas Highways roll on    wont you take me where the poor man lives its where I call home    and can't you see that a breeze is just a change in pace    and money cant buy my soul because it comes from a hard earned place       (chorus)
