Gon' walk down that dirt road till someone lets me ride Gon' walk down that dirt road till someone lets me ride If I can't find my baby, I'm gonna run away and hide
Well, I been pacing around the room hoping maybe she'd come back Pacing 'round the room hoping maybe she'd come back Well, I been praying for salvation, laying 'round 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 Till there's nothing left to see, till the chains have been shattered and I've been freed
But I been lookin' at my shadow, I been watching the colors up above Lookin' at my shadow, watching the colors up above Rolling through the rain and hail, looking for the sunny side of love
Gon' walk on down that dirt road till everything becomes the same Gon' walk on down that dirt road till everything becomes the same Gotta keep on walkin' till I hear her holler out my name
