I'm gonna lay down my old guitar
   Gonna lay down my old guitar
   Oh I wish I could tie it to my side
   And take it along with me

I'm sick in a lonesome bed
I'm sick in a lonesome bed
There's no one to hold my aching head
And I'm sick in a lonesome bed

There's no one to cry for me   
There's no one to cry for me
I've wandered so far away don't you see 
And there's no one to cry for me

I'm telling this world goodbye   
I'm telling this world goodbye
I'm telling the world and my dear little girl
I'll soon tell them all goodbye
