My wife left me, threw my out of our home
My soul is sick and dying Lord
Outside the only home I've known
Stumble through the yard to where the weeds are deep
My soul is sick and dying Lord
Now where am I gonna sleep
Lay me down in the tallgra** the wet soil to my side
My soul is sick and dying Lord
I believe my time is nigh
My wife left me but I'm the one who's got to leave
My soul is sick and dying Lord
I ain't got nowhere to live
Take me back take me back you're the only one I've ever loved
My soul is sick and dying Lord
And I believe I've been misled
I woke up this morning with nothing on my mind
Except please tell me Lord
What is it I done wrong
