Jimmie Rodgers - Years Ago Lyrics

Lyrics Years Ago - Jimmie Rodgers



I was happy, oh so happy
Down in Mississipi way
I was livin' with my pappy
Fifteen years ago today
When I left him in the gloamin'
I recall I heard him say
You'll be sorry that you roamin'
Fifteen years ago today
I met a slicker from the city
And he led my life astray
How he fooled me was a pity
Fifteen years ago today
He said I could make a fortune
If I did as he would say
But we ended up in prison
Fifteen years ago today
Now I'm sittin' by my own son
For my errors I must pay
I recall I wasn't lonesome
Fifteen years ago today
