Hoyt Axton - Blind Fiddler lyrics

I lost my eyes in a blacksmith shop in the year of '76 While working on a revolver and it was out of six Well, I am so sad and lonely and I am condemned to roam Well, I am a blind fiddler I'm a great long ways from home. I've been down to Knoxville had a talk with Dr Lane He operated on one of my eyes but nothing could he gain Hmm, oh, I'm so sad and lonely and I am condemned to roam Well, I am a blind fiddler I'm a great long ways from home. I've got a wife and three little kids depending now on me They're sharin' all my troubles wherever they may be Mhm, oh, I hope that they'll be careful as through this life they roam 'Cause I am a blind fiddler and I cannot help them none. And I lost my eyes in a blacksmith shop in the year of '76 While working on a revolver and it was out of six Well, I am so sad and lonely and I am condemned to roam Well, I am a blind fiddler I'm a great long ways from home. Well, I am a blind fiddler I'm a great long ways from home
