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 aint going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
But I aint going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can’t carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else
I can’t carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else
I can’t carry you, baby,
Gonna carry somebody else
On the road again
On the road again
On the road again….
