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

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

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

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

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

She said "Lord have mercy on my wicked one"

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