Rocky Road Blues

Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man has got my woman and gone
Hey I've got those blues I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
Yes I've got those blues I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
My gal went way and left me she left me with the doggone blues
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man has got my woman and gone
You'll never miss your water until the well runs dry
You'll never miss your water until the well runs dry
You'll never miss your woman until she says goodbye
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man has got my woman and gone
Ah and I wish to the Lord you'd bring my woman back home
Yeah I wish to the Lord you'd bring my woman back home
I'm not so lonesome I just don't want to be alone
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Lord the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Because another man has got my woman and gone
