On the Road Again

Well, I'm so tired of crying, but I'm out on the road again

I'm on the road again

Well, I'm so tired of crying, but I'm out on the road again

I'm on the road again

I ain't got no woman just to call my special friend

You know the first time I traveled out in the rain and snow

In the rain and snow

You know the first time I traveled out in the rain and snow

In the rain and snow

I didn't have no payroll, not even no place to go

And my dear mother left me when I was quite young

When I was quite young

And my dear mother left me when I was quite young

When I was quite young

She said, "Lord, have mercy on my wicked son"

Take a hint from me, mama, please, don't you cry no more

Don't you cry no more

Take a hint from me, mama, please, don't you cry no more

Don't you cry no more

'Cause it's soon one morning down the road I'm going

But I ain't going down that long, old lonesome road

All by myself

But I ain't going down that long, old lonesome road

All by myself

I can't carry you, baby, gonna carry somebody else
