on the road again lyrics

Well, I'm so tired of cryin' but I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
Well, 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 just to call my special friend

And I'm going to leave the city, got to go away
I'm going to leave the city, got to go away
All this fussing and fighting, man, I sure can't stay

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 fellow, 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 gone

But I ain't going down that long and lonesome road
All by myself
But I ain't going down that long and lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby, gonna carry somebody
