Papa Charlie Jackson — Im Going Where The Chilly Winds Dont Blow

[Verse 1] There was a man down in my town [?] He killed his wife, they give him life And he won't be back no more 'Cause he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow [Chorus] Oh, he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow And he won't be back here anymore Now these young men, as a rule, always act a doggone fool 'Cause he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow [Verse 2] Now a friend of mine went downtown To take a walk and look A lady passеd close to him He snatched hеr pocketbook 'Cause he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow [Chorus] Oh, he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow And he won't be back here anymore He had no one to go his bail, so they locked him up in jail Now he's gone where the chilly winds don't blow [Verse 3] I didn't pay my rent last week So they put me right outdoors I'm going to make my exit Where the weather suits my clothes 'Cause I'm going where the chilly winds don't blow [Chorus] Oh, I'm goin' where the chilly winds don't blow And I won't be back here anymore I'm all in out and down, so I'm bound to leave this town 'Cause I'm goin' where the chilly winds don't blow [Verse 4] Now the judge told me to catch the train That soon would come along "You turn me loose, I'll catch the one just gone" 'Cause I'm going where the chilly winds don't blow [Chorus] Oh, I'm going where the chilly winds don't blow And I won't be back here anymore Just as sure as my name is Bill, get off the train in Jacksonville Then I'll be down where the chilly winds don't blow
