Captain Bobby Stout - Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Brother why are you here?

Brother why are you here?

Captain Bobby Stout done found me out

Now I owe that man one more year

I owe the man one more year

First came down to Wichita Town

Pocket full of Mexican smoke

I sold it to a man I did not know

'Cause I was hungry and I was broke

Brother why are you here?..

My mother she stays in Chicago

My poppa stays down in the ground

My baby did go to San Francisco

When the judge laid his gavel down

Brother why are you here?..

My partner came down to Wichita Town

Tried to set me free

Captain Bobby Stout done found him out

Now my partner stays here with me Brother why are you here?..
