On the Road Songtext
von Dave Edmunds

So tired of cryin′, but I'm out
On the road again (I′m on the road again)
I'm so tired of cryin', but I′m out
On the road again (I′m on the road again)
I ain't got no woman 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 mornin′ on that road I′m gone


But I ain't goin′ down that long, long lonesome road (all by myself)
No I ain't goin′ down that long, long 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
