Refrein:
Davy's on the road again
Wearin' different clothes again
Davy's turnin' handouts down
To keep his pockets clean.

All his goods are sold again
His word's as a good as gold again
Says if you see Jean now ask her
Please, to pity me.

Jean and I we moved along
Since the day, down in the hollow
When the mind went driftin' on
And the feet were soon to follow.

Refrein.

Refrein 2:
Sayin' his goodbyes again
Wheels are in his eyes again
Says if you seen Jean now ask her
Please, to pity me.

Refrein 3:
Downtown in the big town
Gonna set you back on your heels
With a mouth full of memories
And a lot of stickers for my windshield.

Refrein 4:
Shut the door, cut the light
Davy won't be home tonight
You can wait till the dawn rolls in
You won't see your Davy again.

(Instrumental).

Refrein.
