Lyrics Miles to Go - Eilen Jewell

Miles to Go

One of these old days I’m gonna lay me down
By the river, babe, on the lonesome ground
By the river, babe, on the lonesome ground
Let that cold water roll me 'round and 'round
Let that cold water roll me 'round and 'round
Lord knows I tried to get along with you
But you had better things, better things to do
You had better things, better things to do
Than try to love someone who don’t love you
Than try to love someone who don’t love you
I got a wandering soul takes me down the line
Ain’t got a nickel, babe, ain’t got a lousy dime
Ain’t got a nickel, babe, ain’t got a lousy dime
Lord, I got plenty of these hard times
Lord, I got plenty of these hard times
In the maddening crowd nobody knows me
A stranger’s face on everyone I see
A stranger’s face on everyone I see
And miles and miles to go before I sleep
Miles and miles to go before I sleep
