The Del McCoury Band - Leroy's Dustbowl Blues

Kishore Kumar Hits — The Del McCoury Band - Leroy's Dustbowl Blues lyrics

Artist: The Del McCoury Band

album: The Mountain

Leroy was a farmer
And an honest man
Would have lived in Oklahoma
All his days
He just wanted left alone
To work a piece of land
But a hard wind come
And blew his dreams away
So he headed for the West Coast
Thought he could not lose
Rollin' down the highway
With the dustbowl blues
It's a thousand miles
From Broken Bow to Bakersfield
And the highway's paved
With heartaches all the way
Leroy drove on lookin' for a better deal
A place a man could settle down and stay
But the police at the state line
Beat him black and blue
Left him lyin' by the roadside
With the dustbowl blues
They say California is a paradise
Hollywood turns night time into day
But up along the San Joaquin
Those city lights
Might as well be a million miles away
When your kids are cold and hungry
Wearin' worn out shoes
Standin' in the garden
With the dustbowl blues
