Le parole della versione originale di Henry Thomas, Bull Doze...

GOING UP THE COUNTRY I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go? I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go? I'm going to some place where I've never been before. I'm going, I'm going where the water tastes like wine. I'm going where the water tastes like wine. We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away. I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away. All this fussing and fighting, man, you know I just can't stay. Now, Baby, pack your leaving trunk. You know we got to leave today. Just exactly where we going I just can not say, But we might even leave the U.S.A. 'Cause it's a brand new game, and I want to play. No use of you running or screaming and crying 'Cause you got a home as long as I got mine.

BULL DOZE BLUES I'm going away, babe, and it won't be long I'm going away and it won't be long I'm going away and it won't be long Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye I'm going back to Tennessee I'm going back to Memphis, Tennessee I'm going back, Memphis, Tennessee I'm going where I never get bulldozed I'm going where I never get the bulldoze I'm going where I never get bulldozed If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a hole I'm in If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a hole I'm in If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a fool I've been. Oh, my babe, take me back. How in the world, Lord, take me back.
