I've damn near walked this world around Another city, another town Another friend to say goodbye Another time to sit and cry And it's many a mile I have been on this road It's many a mile I have gone I've seen your towns they're all the same The only difference is in the name And the only life I've ever know Has been my suitcase and the open road And it's many a mile I have been on this road It's many a mile I have gone There was a girl who knew me best You know she gave my poor heart rest She was my world my joy my dear And now she's gone to god knows where And it's many a mile I have been on this road It's many a mile I have gone So I'll fill my glass up to the brim And through my glass the world looks dim But I know outside there's a light somewhere Maybe my rambling will take me there
