Child, please don't worry
There will be plenty of time now to find your eye
He's been calling her to bed
To come make a home and start again
Well she ain't coming back and you know why
It's a hard life we're living
I want to lay down here right next to you and die
But it ain't no family stone that's gonna bring your baby home
Well she ain't coming back and you know why
We've been praying out on gravel roads
You know we ain't gonna waste no time
Parading our hearts from door to door
Well we ain't gonna waste no time
It's a high lonesome road to hold
But I'm not going to change at all
No you ain't gonna see me hang this here head and cry
Child, don't get behind me
It's hard enough to fake but Lord I try
I'd hate to miss my chance to use the phone and make amends
Well she ain't coming back so I don't try
We've been praying out on gravel roads
You know we ain't gonna waste no time
Parading our hearts from door to door
Well we ain't gonna waste no time
It's a high lonesome road to hold
But I'm not going to change at all
No you ain't gonna see me hang this here head and cry
