I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road 
Well, I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road 
And I ain't gonna stop walking till I get in sweet mama's door 

The girl I'm loving she's got great long curly hair 
The girl I'm loving she's got great long curly hair 
And her mama and her papa well, they sure don't allow me there 

If you catch my jumper (?), babe, hanging upside your wall 
Well, if you catch my jumper (?), babe, hanging upside your wall 
Well, you know by that I need my ashes hauled 

I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road 
I'm going to Brownsville, take that right hand road 
And I ain't gonna stop walking till I get in sweet mama's door
