I'm tired of walking down that lonesome road I'm tired of walking down that lonesome road It's a mighty hard travelin' and a heavy load I swing that hammer and I draw a low straight line I swing that hammer and I draw a low straight line It's a 40 hour livin' for that gal of mine Well, the foreman asked me what would be my say Oh, the foreman asked me what might be my say I said, "Just a drink of water and favor on the Judgment Day" I'm tired of walking down that lonesome road I'm tired of walking down that lonesome road It's a mighty hard travelin' and a heavy load Well, I roll a lucky dice and draw a winning hand I roll a lucky dice and draw a winning hand But where my money goes, I don't understand Well, the king of Memphis, popping four bit shines Well the king of Memphis, popping four bit shines I'm up here in Kentucky, slave to this old mine Every time it thunders, I hear them sad ole taps Oh, every time it thunders, I hear them sad ole taps And if this mountain shakes, it's gonna fall right in my lap Yeah, I'm tired of walkin' down that lonesome road I'm tired of walkin' down that lonesome road It's a mighty hard travelin' and a heavy load
