Cairo, Illinois

Cairo Illinois - Pokey LaFarge[00:00:00]

If it's not where you're from[00:00:08]

But what you had where you happened to come from[00:00:13]

More or less I'd say that I had none[00:00:18]

Eatin' and drinkin' would be all that I do[00:00:22]

And if it's not what you do[00:00:29]

But what you got then I got less[00:00:33]

And out of loving or playing I like loving the best[00:00:38]

Now baby take me with you when you go[00:00:42]

Take me to the bridge where the rivers collide[00:00:50]

Down in Cairo Illinois on a Saturday night[00:00:54]

I might jump in[00:00:58]

Everyone wants to hear a song[00:01:04]

That helps the day seem half as long[00:01:08]

But I'm trying[00:01:12]

I want you to see that I'm trying babe[00:01:15]

If you've lost your ticket to paradise[00:01:21]

Or you spent your money for the bus[00:01:26]

It's cold coffee in the morning slow trumpet at dusk[00:01:30]

Now baby catch that old midnight train[00:01:34]

Take me to the bridge where the rivers collide[00:01:42]

Down in Cairo Illinois on a Saturday night[00:01:46]

I might jump in[00:01:50]

Everyone wants to hear a song[00:01:56]

That helps the day seem half as long[00:02:00]

But I'm trying[00:02:04]

I want you to hear that I'm trying babe[00:02:07]

Down by the levee[00:02:33]

Where you swear God's got you shamed[00:02:36]

Just cast your doubts and the mistakes that you've made[00:02:41]

Into that old wishing well well well well well[00:02:46]

Don't the river look lonesome at twilight[00:02:52]

Well there ain't no looking back[00:02:57]

It's just a broken fiddle and an old tote sack[00:03:01]

In the morning you'll be going south[00:03:06]

Take me to the bridge where the rivers collide[00:03:14]

Down in Cairo Illinois on a Saturday night[00:03:17]

I might jump in[00:03:22]

Everyone wants to hear a song[00:03:28]

That helps the day seem half as long[00:03:32]

But I'm trying[00:03:36]

I want you to feel like I'm trying babe oh yes[00:03:39]

I want you to know that I'm trying[00:03:44]
