Dirt Road Blues (Version 2) Lyrics

Gon' walk on down that dirt road, 'til somebody lets me ride
Gon' walk down that dirt road, 'til somebody lets me ride
If I can't find my baby I'm gonna run away and hide

I been pacing 'round the room, hoping maybe she'd come back
Pacing 'round the room, hoping maybe she'd come back
Praying for salvation, hanging around in a one-room country shack

Gon' walk down that dirt road until my eyes begin to bleed
Gon' walk down that dirt road until my eyes begin to bleed
'Til there's nothing left to see, 'til the chains have been shattered, and I've been freed

But I've seen the lights of Broadway, and I've been on Sunset and Vine
I've seen the lights of Broadway, and I've stood 'round on Sunset and Vine
Well, I ain't been breakin' your heart, you can stay away from mine

I'm gon' walk on down that dirt road, 'til I'm right beside the sun
Walk down that dirt road until I'm right beside the sun
Gonna put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone

Gon' walk down that dirt road until everything becomes the same
Walk down that dirt road, everything becomes the same
I'm gonna keep on walking 'til I hear her holler out my name
