The Kinks Lincoln County song lyrics

I've gotta get a train, take me back home again,

See my daddy, momma wants to see me too.

I'm gonna see my momma looking through the window

At the station in the morning, been a few mornings since I've been home.

I've been doing wrong but now I'm going home.

So come on girls, you better put your best boots on.

'cause when I get home to lincoln county,

Won't know which way to go, I'm gonna find all those pretty girls.

I'm gonna find them all.

'cause when I get home to lincoln county,

Gonna lift the lid off hell, drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell(? ).

Then I'm gonna shout for more.

Well, I bought a new suit at the best pawn broker's shop,

Bought my ticket from money that I saved in jail.

I got a boot lace tie, I got for my pa,

I got a head scarf, fair, I got for my momma that she won't wear.

I've been doing wrong but now I'm going home.

So come on girls, you better put your best boots on.

'cause when I get home to lincoln county,

Won't know which way to go, I'm gonna find all those pretty girls.

I'm gonna find them all.

'cause when I get home to lincoln county,

Gonna lift the lid off hell, drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell(? ).

Then I'm gonna shout for more.

I've gotta get a train, take me back home again,

See my daddy, momma wants to see me too.

'cause when I get me back to lincoln county,

Gonna lift the lid off hell, drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell(? ).

Then I'm gonna shout for more.

'cause when I get back to lincoln county,

Gonna lift the lid off hell, drink some beer, I'm gonna live it swell(? ).

Then I'm gonna shout for more.

'cause when I get home to lincoln county,

Won't know which way to go, I'm gonna find all those pretty girls.

I'm gonna find them all.
