Discover the story of the song > Homesick and Lonesome Blues – Blind Boy Fuller

The protagonist is feeling homesick and lonely. He tried to rest but his mind is restless, like geese flying in the west. He wishes he could change his mind and go back home because he left his partner crying when he went to New York. He can't sleep or eat because he misses his partner so much. He plans to tell her that when he goes home, because he doesn't want the women in Harlem to bother her.
