Allison Mose – One Room Country Shack lyrics

Sittin' here a thousand miles from nowhere
In this one room country little shack
Sittin' here a thousand miles from nowhere
In this one room country little shack
My only worldly possession
Is a raggedy old eleven foot cotton sack

I wake up ev'ry night 'bout midnight
People, I just can't sleep no more
I wake up ev'ry night about midnight
People, I just can't sleep no more
Only crickets and frogs to keep me comp'ny
And the wind howling around my door

(Piano)

I'm gonnna leave here early in the mo'nin
I'm 'bout to go out of my mind
I'm gonna leave here early in the mo'nin
I'm 'bout to go out of my mind
I'm gonna find me some kind of companion
Even if she dumb, deaf or cripple and blind.
