Lyrics
well I'm a man with no purpose
and I'm drivin by the cold
I said I'm a man with no purpose
and I'm drivin by the cold
and I keep headin south for the winter
cause the frost makes me feel so old
and I got no bills to pay
no mortgage too
and I got the wind in my hair
and holes in my shoes
and I keep headin south for the winter and I aint coming back again
I've the bumble bee flat blues
