It sure have been, a long ol' lonesome day.

It sure have been, a long ol' lonesome day.

I can see my baby, but still she ‘s so many miles away.



Sometimes I feel like walkin', but I ain't got no walkin' shoes.

Sometimes I feel like walkin', but I ain't got no walkin' shoes.

If my baby was with me, I wouldn't have these walkin' blues.



Crossties skies is my pilla', the cold ground is my bed.

Crossties skies is my pilla', cold ground is my bed.

The moonlight is my blanket, and the blue skies is my spread.



I love to hear, my baby call my name.

I love to hear, my baby call my name.

She don't call so often, oh, but she calls so plain.



If you ever get a sweet woman, take her everywhere you go.

If you ever get a sweet woman, take her every place you go.

Yes I want you to know, that you can't get that no more.
