My baby's gone I know not where
This lonliness is hard to bear
These tears I cry are all in vain
I'm never gonna see her face again
Some other guy had got my gal and gone
I don't know why she dad done me wrong
I only know I can't go on
I've been hangin' around this town too long
Will I make it alright? Well, I don't know
And nowhere to stay, no place to go
I gotta leave this town far, far behind
I gotta try to ease my troubled mind
This road I walk is a takin' me away
From all my misery and if I ever,
Ever reach the end
I ain't never gonna walk this road again
Will I make it alright? Well, I don't know
And nowhere to stay, no place to go
I gotta leave this town far, far behind
I gotta try to ease my troubled mind
Well, this road I walk is a-takin' me away
From all my misery and if I ever,
Ever reach the end
I aint never gonna walk this road again
Well, a man alone, unh huh, that's me
Well, a man alone is misery
