Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man
Has got my woman and gone
Instrumental
Hey I've got those blues
I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
Yes, I've got those blues
I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
My gal went way and left me
She left me with the doggone blues
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long - Lord, Lord
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man
Has got my woman and gone
[Instrumental]
You'll never miss your water until the well runs dry
You'll never miss your water until the well runs dry
You'll never miss your woman until she says goodbye
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long - Lord, Lord
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man
Has got my woman and gone
[Instrumental]
Ah, and I wish to the Lord you'd bring my woman back home
Yeah, I wish to the Lord you'd bring my woman back home
I'm not so lonesome
I just don't want to be alone
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long - Lord, Lord
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man
Has got my woman and gone...
