Bessie Smith - Long Old Road Lyrics

Lyrics Long Old Road - Bessie Smith



It's a long old road, but I'm gonna find the end
It's a long old road, but I'm gonna find the end
And when I get there, I'm gonna shake hands with a friend
On the side of the road, I sat underneath a tree
On the side of the road, I sat underneath a tree
Nobody knows the thoughts that came over me
Weepin' and cryin', tears fallin' on the ground
Weepin' and cryin', tears fallin' on the ground
When I got to the end, I was so worried down
He took me back baby, and I tried it again
He took me back baby, and I tried it again
I got to make it, I've got to find the end
You can't trust nobody, you might as well be alone
You can't trust nobody, you might as well be alone
Found my long-lost friend, and I might as well stayed at home
