charley patton songs

i spend a lifetime

trying to decipher

charley patton songs. i don't know why i bother

even if i think it's right

it always comes out wroung. but i'm old enough

old enough to know why

you're still young enough

young enough to still try

still try. i keep on pushing

for some way through it

til i'm knackered out

i know how you're feeling

even though i've never been

that far south

but i'm old enough

old enough to know why

you're still young enough

young enough to still try

still try. and i been lookin in new york

i been lookin in chicago

i been lookin in new orleans

i can't find you

i been lookin in detroit

i been lookin in los angeles

i been lookin in louisville

i cannot find you

well i'm old enough

old enough to know why

you're still young enough

young enough to still try

you still try. i been lookin in new york

i been lookin in chicago

i been lookin in new orleans

i can't find you

i been lookin in detroit

i been lookin in los angeles

i been lookin in louisville

i cannot find you

i been lookin in the lonely states

i been lookin in philadelphia

i been lookin in memphis

i cannot find you

i cannot find you
