Whistin' Song

No one should know too much about your business
No one should know too awful much about your business
It's your own, don't tell nobody, I don't wanna know
A long time ago I had a good taste of some hard luck
A long time ago I had a good taste of some hard luck
Hard work, heartbreak and misery
And loneliness, hard luck, heartbreak and misery
I've spent my life running from people I don't even know
I've spent my life running from people
I don't even know
Don't know, don't guess I ever will
And I hoped and I prayed each and every day
Lord, take away this fate that befalls me
Yes, I hoped and I prayed, each and every day
Lord, take away this fate that befalls
me
And then one day I had this feeling come upon me
Yes, then one day I had this feeling come upon me
One day sitting on the porch-swing of my Mother's house
Playing on a guitar that my Brother had
Coming up with music that I've never heard nowhere
