Now my road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Now my road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Says I been catching the devil, ever since my good gal been gone
Says my mama told me, Lord when I was quite a child
Says my mama told me, Lord when I was quite a child
Son you must always remember, Lord that you was born to die
Now I got so many wagons, till I done cut that good road down
Now I got so many wagons, till I done cut that good road down
Because the little woman that I been loving, said she do not even want me around
Says she won't write me no letter, she won't send me no telegram
Says she won't write me no letter, she won't send me no telegram
She just a hard-headed woman, and she don't even give a damn
Now I'm going to smoke my reefer, drink my good champagne and wine
Now I'm going to smoke my reefer, drink my good champagne and wine
Say I ain't going to let these hard-headed women, make me lose my mind
