Have you ever been walking down that lonesome road?
Have you ever been walking
Walking down that lonesome road?
All you got in this world
Lord, I declare she's dead and gone

Things look so black, you got to travel alone
Things look so black, you got to travel alone
All you got in this world, lord, I declare she's gone

It isn't too good, haven't got a shelter over your head
It doesn't look so good
When you haven't got a shelter over your head
When you could have been sleeping on a feather bed, yeah

Have you ever been walking down that lonesome road?
Have you ever been walking
Walking down that lonesome road?
All you got in this world
Lord, I declare she's dead and gone
