Well, I'm gonna leave this country
Yes, I'm gonna leave this world
Well, I'm gonna leave this country
For the sake of one little girl
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
No, I ain't gonna work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it may be a rainy day
Can't you hear that banjo ringing?
Don't you hear that lonesome sound?
Don't you hear them pretty gals singing?
Out on the cold, cold ground
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
No, I ain't gonna work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it may be a rainy day
Well, I hang my head in sorrow
Yes, I hang my head and cry
Well, I hang my head in sorrow
When my darlin' pa**es by
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
No, I ain't gonna work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it may be a rainy day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
No, I ain't gonna work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it may be a rainy day
