Missing ... presumed having good time

Working on a railroad for a dollar a day

Working on a railroad for a dollar a day

Working on a railroad good buddy for a dollar a day

Got to get my money gotta get my pay



Take this hammer take it to the captain

Take this hammer take it to the captain

Take this hammer good buddy take it to the captain

Tell him I'm gone tell him I'm gone



If he asks you was I running

If he asks you was I running

If he asks you good buddy was I running

Tell him I was flying tell him I was flying



If he asks you was I laughing

If he asks you was I laughing

If he asks you good buddy was I laughing

Tell him I was crying tell him I was crying



This old hammer rings like silver

This old hammer rings like silver

This old hammer good buddy rings like silver

Shine like gold buddy and it shine like gold



Working on a railroad for a dollar a day

Working on a railroad for a dollar a day

Working on a railroad good buddy for a dollar a day

Got to get my money gotta get my pay

Got to get my money gotta get my pay

Got to get my money gotta get my pay

Bewildered

Lost in a dream of you

Where is the love I once knew

Why did we part



Bewildered

I'm helpless without you dear

Wishing your heart could hear

What's in my heart



Why must I have sleepless nights

And endless days

But love, you took my soul

Without a thought

I'm in the dark



Bewildered

I need your guiding hand

I will never understand

Why did you leave me bewildered



Why must I have sleepless nights

And endless days

But love, you took my soul

Without a thought

I'm in the dark



Bewildered

I need your guiding hand

I will never understand

How could you leave me bewildered

There's nothing I can do

Nothing I can say

You'll do what you want to

You'll go your own sweet way

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way



Now I can talk to you serious

I can talk to you nice

But when it comes to love

You won't take good advice

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way



It doesn't matter what I say

What I do or what I think

You can lead a horse to water

You can't make him drink

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way

You'll go your own sweet

Your own sweet way

You gotta run me down you gotta run me down

If you want to contact me you gotta run me down



I got work to do I'm the busiest man in town

If you want to contact me you gotta run me down



When I gets my dough I'm kinda hard to find

If you want me to pay your bills you gotta run me down



Now the rootest he crowed and them old hens looked around

Said if you want to make love you gotta run me down



When I had my money you used to follow me around

Now I have got broke you gotta run me down

One thing I like about that gal of mine

One thing I like about that gal of mine

One thing I like about that gal of mine

She treats me right and loves me all the time



Sometimes I'm broke and blue as I can be

Sometimes I'm broke and blue as I can be

Sometimes I'm broke and blue as I can be

But still my baby she looks after me



She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet

She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet

She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet

And this she said to every man she met



Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime

Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime

Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime

So I can feed that hungry man of mine



That gal of mine she's one way all the time

That gal of mine she's one way all the time

That gal of mine she's one way all the time

She takes the blues away and satisfies my mind

Blues stay away from me

Blues why don't you let me be

Don't know why

You keep on haunting me



Love was never meant for me

True love was never meant for me

Seems somehow

We never can agree



Life is full of misery

Dreams are like a memory

Bringing back

Your love that used to be



Tears so many I can't see

Years don't mean a thing to me

Time goes by

And I still can't be free

Will you miss me, will you miss me

Will you miss me, will you miss me

Will you miss me, miss me when I'm gone



Did you ever dream lucky, wake up cold in hand

Do you look at the stars in the heavens above

Do you sleep on the pillow where my head used to lay

While the moonbeams flicker 'cross your window pane

I'm on my way from here, don't know where I'm going



I'm a rolling, rolling down that road

I'm a rolling, rolling down that road

Just dreaming about the days of long ago



When darkness falls across the land

There's a shadow cast in the heart of a man

Though the flame of desire burns bright as a star

I hear a cry on the wind like a voice from afar

I'm a stranger here, don't know where I'm going



I'm a rolling, rolling down that road

I'm a rolling, rolling down that road

Just dreaming about the days of long ago



Will you miss me, will you miss me

Will you miss me, will you miss me

Will you miss me, miss me when I'm gone

Please baby - please please baby

Won't you come back to your daddy one more time



Please baby - please please baby

When I get my money I will give you my last dime



When you left me babe you left me feeling so blue

You know that I didn't love no-one but you

Please baby - please please baby

Won't you come back to your daddy one more time



I'm so blue baby, I'm, I'm so blue baby

I can't sleep at night

I can't hardly talk from crying

You know baby, you, you know baby

You always forever on my mind

Since you've been gone I can't sleep at night

Why don't you take my meals I can't eat a bite

Please baby, please please baby

Won't you come back to your daddy one more time



When you left me babe you left me feeling so blue

You know that I didn't love no-one but you

Please baby - please please baby

Won't you come back to your daddy one more time

In that land across the sea there's a job for you and me

Though our presence there may not be found

We must stay standing there on the battle lines and pray

We must never lay our weapons down



We don't have to be a soldier in a uniform

To be of service over there

While the boys so bravely stand with the weapons made by hand

Let us trust and use the weapon of prayer



Many thousand miles away someone shed there blood today

With a heart so true and brave they're gone

To a war that's yours and mine let us join the battle line

With a weapon that will save our home



We don't have to be a soldier in a uniform

To be of service over there

While the boys so bravely stand with the weapons made by hand

Let us trust and use the weapon of prayer



And when the planes and tanks and guns have done all that they can do

And the mighty bombs have rained and failed

Still the helpful hand above, on the weapon made of love

And against him none on earth prevail

Show me a place where I don't have to worry

And that's where I belong

Show me a place where I don't have to hurry

And that's where I belong

Give me the time, so I can change my mind

Where it don't matter if I'm wrong

Show me a place where I don't have to worry

And that's where I belong

Lord I feel like going home

I tried and I failed and I'm tired and weary

Everything I ever done was wrong

And I feel like going home



Lord I tried to see it through

But it was too much for me

And now I'm coming home to you

And I feel like going home



Cloudy skies are rolling in

And not a friend around to help me

From all the places I have been

And I feel like going home



Lord I feel like going home

I tried and I failed and I'm tired and weary

Everything I ever done was wrong

And I feel like going home
