Hold me down

I'm just a poor boy, I got no money to my name

I'm just a drifter's child, yeah I got a little gypsy side to me

Whenever those west winds howl, I'm already halfway out of town

One of these days, I'll come around, kick off my boots, hang my hat, and just sit down and hang around

Oh baby, I'll hang around, so won't you hold me down

And help me find peace of mind here on solid ground

And I'll stay close to the sound of your heartbeat until the sunshine comes back around

I've traveled down all of those no-name back roads

And sang every dive bar from West Texas to Carolina shores

And all I've found, oh, is more bitterness in my soul
