I've damn near walked this world around
Another city, another town Another friend to say goodbye Another girl to sit and cry And it's many a mile I’ve spent on this road It's many a mile I have gone Well, there was one who knew me best You know she gave my poor heart rest She was my world, my heart, my dear Now she's gone to God knows where And it's many a mile I’ve spent on this road It's many a mile I have gone I've seen your towns they're all the same The only difference is in a name The only home I've ever knowed Was a suitcase and the open road And it's many a mile I’ve spent on this road It's many a mile I have gone So I'll fill my glasses up to the brim And through my glass my world looks dim But I know outside there's light somewhere Maybe my rambling will get me there And it's many a mile I’ve spent on this road It's many a mile I‘ve gone It's many a mile I’ve spent on this road And it's many a mile I will go |

When first I came to town, I came in from the country
Not a penny did I have, and not one cent could I offer But still our love it grew, and our troubles they were few, they were few Many times I tried to tell you all the hurt that I was feelin' But my thoughts stumbled in my mind, and then words lost their meaning I didn't mean to cause you pain, so I'm leaving once again, once again Ain't no need to think of me, I'll be happy where I'm goin' I've got roots that need a plantin', and a love that needs a growin' Where my pride won't have to bend, and my lips can taste the wind, taste the wind And as for you, your tears will heal all the wounds that been opened Just as time will clear the fields of all the flowers that have ripened Of all these things you can be sure, only love will endure |
