My Road Is Rough And Rocky

You don't b'lieve I'm travelin' on the road somewhere
 Get your book and pencil and count the days I'm gone
 I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 You can go to Memphis, find me there
 Catch the first train smokin' find me on the road somewhere
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 You've been talkin' 'bout your brickhouse but you ought to see mine
 It ain't so pretty but it's built up fine
 I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I got up this mornin' looked at the risin' sun
 Can't nobody run me like them bloodhounds done
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I got up in my stockings, tippin' 'cross the floor
 Heared them bloodhounds a-rappin' upon my door
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I have chickens on my back and there's the hounds on my track
 I dropped my hat1 'n' I couldn't stop to look back
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I could hear them pistol balls zoomin' by my head
 I b'lieve to my soul they gonna kill me dead
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I got up this mornin' just about the break of day
 I could hear them there bloodhounds a-comin' down my way
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
 I got up this mornin', fell down 'cross my bed
 I could hear somethin' perchin' all around my head
 And I am gone, I'm long gone
 My road is rough and rocky on my way
