One More Mile

It's been a hard desert journey
But I don't have to cry no more
I want you to keep your light a-burning
So you'll be here to get through the storm

One more mile
One more mile to go

It's been a hard desert journey, baby
But I don't have to cry no more
I did wrong when I took a gamble
You know I bet my money wrong
I was betting on my baby
And my baby left me alone

One more mile
One more mile to go

It's been a hard desert journey, baby
And I don't have to cry no more
You know they tell me I'm a schoolkid
They say they're huntin' hounds for me
But this woman that I'm lovin'
She only ever gives one stage

One more mile
One more mile to go

It's been a hard desert journey, baby
I don't have to cry no more
