Captain Bobby Stout - original by Jerry Hahn Brotherhood


Brother why are you here?
Brother why are you here?
Captain Bobby Stout done found me out, now I owe The Man one more year


I first came down to Wichita town
pocket full of Mexican smoke
sold it to a man I did not know
cause I was hungry and I was broke

Brother why are you here?
Brother why are you here?
Captain Bobby Stout done found me out,
now I owe The Man one more year


my partner came down to wichita town
tryin to set me free
but capt. bobby stout, he found him out
now my partner's stayin here with me

Brother why are you here?
Brother why are you here?
Captain Bobby Stout done found me out,
now I owe The Man one more year

My mama e stays in Chicago.
My daddy stays down in the ground.
My baby did go on to San Francisco
When the judge laid his gavel down.

{Chorus and out}
