I ain't got no home, I'm just a-roamin' 'round, |
|
Just a wandrin' worker, I go from town to town. |
|
And the police make it hard wherever I may go |
|
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore. |
|
My brothers and my sisters are stranded on this road, |
|
A hot and dusty road that a million feet have trod; |
|
Rich man took my home and drove me from my door |
|
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore. |
|
Was a-farmin' on the shares, and always I was poor; |
|
My crops I lay into the banker's store. |
|
My wife took down and died upon the cabin floor, |
|
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore. |
|
I mined in your mines and I gathered in your corn |
|
I been working, mister, since the day I was born |
|
Now I worry all the time like I never did before |
|
'Cause I ain't got no home in this world anymore |
|
Now as I look around, it's mighty plain to see |
|
This world is such a great and a funny place to be; |
|
Oh, the gamblin' man is rich an' the workin' man is poor, |
|
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore. |
