Lyrics : Willie Jean

Sometimes I think about the folks back home
And twelve miles of road I used to roam

Sometimes I think about my crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?

We used to spend the summer on a gra**y river bank
And drink hot water from a railroad fillin' tank

Sometimes I think about my crazy Willie Jean
Will she ever get as far as New Orleans, oh

Daddy told me "Son, I see you're gonna come to harm
I'm gonna see you on the Knoxville county farm"

Sometimes I think about that crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?

Sometimes I lie awake and I cry, think about Willie Jean
Oh, she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Mmm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm-hmm (Hmm)
Crazy Willie Jean, far as New Orleans
