Lyrics I Got A Story To Tell - Bobby Rush

I got a story to tell
And I wanna tell my story to you
Yes, I got a story to tell
I wanna tell my story to you
Well, about the place that I've been
And all the things I used to do

I didn't have no mother, no father, and sister's
I never had none
Lord, I didn't have no mother, no father, and a sister
I never had none
Well, you know the only papa that I had, he got killed in Vietnam

There been time I walk around with no shoes on my feet
Well, there've been time I walk around Lord, with no shoes on my feet
There've been time I went to bed hungry
When I didn't have no food to eat

And that's my story, eh, eh, eh
That's my story, I wanted to tell you
Yeah, that's my story, eh, eh
That's my story I wanted to tell

Oh, you don't have to feel sorry for me
All I want you to do is wish me well
