That's My Story Lyrics

When I first started travelin, travelin, I left home when I was young.
When I first started travelin, I left home when I was young.
I left Old Mississipi,
made my first stop in Memphis Tennessee,
True story of my life.

I worked in Memphis Tennessee,
down at the New Days picture show,
everybody, everybody wanna hear my story,
they wanna know, they wanna know, just how old I was when I left home.
I was only 14 years old when I hit the road.
I left Mississippi
mmm mmm
I come to Memphis Tennessee.

I worked there,
I wasnt makin much money,
I work all day.
Play my guitar at night
mmm mmm

then I left that town,
when I was 17 years old,
that's my story.

I come to cincinatti
mmm
I stayed down,
two long years
I didnt get no break,
I come down,
old Detroit Michigan
I got my start in Detroit.

mmmm

I been there, I been there ever since.

mmm, mmmm, mmmm,
that's my story, that's my story,
that's my story of my life

that's my story,
that's my story,

mmm mmm

I had a hard time
mmm
mmm hmm
mmm

now I'm doin alright
that's my story that's my story people
that's my story of my life
