I Was Standing by the Wayside |
| I was standin' on the wayside |
| Tryin' to flag myself a ride |
| I was standin' on the wayside, wayside, people |
| And just tryin' to flag myself a ride |
| I didn’t have no money |
| I was tryin' to get back home |
| It was stormin' and rainin', stormin' and rainin' |
| And the wind began to blow, oh yeah |
| It was stormin' and rainin' |
| And the rain comin' down, oh yeah, yeah |
| I didn’t have no money |
| I was tryin' to get back home |
| That old highway looked so lonesome, so lonesome |
| In the evenin' when the sun goes down |
| You know that old highway looked so lonesome, so lonesome |
| In the evenin' when the sun goes down |
| You’ll be thinkn' 'bout your little wife back home |
| You wanna make it back home so bad |
| It was thunderin' and lightenin', thunderin' and lightenin' |
| You know the wind began to blow |
| It was thunderin' and lightenin' |
| You know the wind began to blow |
| I didn’t have no place, no place to lay my head |
| No place to lay my head, oh yeah, oh yeah |
