[00:00.19]Sugar Ditch - Omar and the Howlers
[00:18.95]Well I met him at the courthouse
[00:28.51]Playin' French harp on the steps
[00:38.08]And I loved him like a brother
[00:48.38]No better friend could any man have
[00:56.92]Well his daddy was a rounder
[01:06.55]Till he drank his self to death
[01:16.24]Left his momma to raise the family
[01:26.31]She was working when she drew in her last breath
[01:37.29]People say we're no count and we're sorry
[01:45.28]But it's a long hard road we travel on
[01:54.79]And we'll never never strike it rich
[02:02.47]Down in Sugar Ditch
[02:13.31]Well he never had no money
[02:22.93]And no way to get him none
[02:32.55]Just a poor boy going nowhere
[02:42.80]Till one morning morning he was gone
[02:52.11]Well I heard he's up in Memphis
[03:01.39]Everybody knows his name
[03:10.96]He broke out of this red dirt prison
[03:21.15]And I swear I'll follow him someday
[03:31.86]People say we're no count and we're sorry
[03:40.13]But it's a long hard road we travel on
[03:49.66]And we'll never never strike it rich
[03:57.35]Down in Sugar Ditch
[04:03.06]I'm going away I'm going away
[04:10.88]Ain't no future in this place
[04:17.17]I'm going away I'm going away
[04:24.94]Ain't no future in this place
[04:30.48]I'm gonna leave Sugar Ditch
[04:34.98]I'm going away
