Lyrics Florida Bound Blues - Scrapper Blackwell , Leroy Carr

I'm going back to Florida where I can have my fun
I'm going back to Florida where I can have my fun
Lay down in the green grass, look up at the morning sun

Say, Mr. Red Cap Porter, help me on with my load
Say, Mr. Red Cap Porter, help me on with my load
Have your steamboat captain to let me get on board

I got a letter from my daddy, he bought me a piece of ground
I got a letter from my daddy, he bought me a piece of ground
You can't blame me for leaving, Lord, I'm Florida bound

If your home's in Florida, what in the world are you doing here?
If your home's in Florida, what in the world are you doing here?
I'll be with you in another year

My mama told me, and daddy told me too
My mama told me, and daddy told me too
Don't let them bell bottom pants, make a fool out of you
