Mama always told me
Don't build your house
On the shifting sands
When the wind comes a' blowing
The first wind that will blow
Will blow it down
Mama always told me
Don't build your house
On the shifting sands
When the wind comes a' blowing
The first wind that will blow
Will blow it down
Oh it's an endless road
But I keep trying
I'm going down the railroad
I'm going down
Where no one can find me
Raise our love under a shady grove
Papa always told me
Girl never let your deal go down
He told me
Little girl don't let them steal your soul
Oh it's an endless road
But I keep trying
I'm going down the railroad
I'm going down
Where no one can find me
Raise our love under a shady grove
Mama always told me
Don't build your house
On the shifting sands
When the wind comes a' blowing
The first wind that will blow
Will blow it down
Oh it's an endless road
But I keep trying
I'm going down the railroad
I'm going down
Where no one can find me
Raise our love under a shady grove
Mama always told me
Don't build your house
On the shifting sands
When the wind comes a' blowing
The first wind that will blow
Will blow it down
