Southbound Again
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Southbound again I don't know if I'm going or leaving home
Boy got to be moving
Seems like the boy is bound to roam
Southbound again got no money I've got no place to go
That woman's with her lover boy
Never want to see her face no more
Every single time I roll across the rolling River Tyne
I get the same old feeling
Every time I'm moving down the line
Soutbound again last night I felt like crying
Right now I'm sick of living
But I'm going to keep trying
