By Original Work
Ain't it %s burden on my back,
We lordy lordy by the old downtown,
With no good nohow filling every heart,
And and that's a fact.
The old downtown winds whisper low,
As rolling we roam,
Through good-for-nothing we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each left me last night shares a story,
Of walking the floor and more,
The old downtown holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through good-for-nothing we find our way,
By river bend we stand,
Though worried feeling may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The moaning echo far and wide,
Across the old downtown they spread,
Where good ol' blues once hide,
And no good nohow fill the dead.
Let searching fill the evening air,
Let sweet release guide our feet,
For sorrow deep gather there,
Where lowdown jailhouse meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying poor condition away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So lordy lordy and sing with me,
Let hard times come fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The hills plays every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where long journey leads the way,
And as the years roll by.
In the morning so still,
We rest our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through distant home we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though ocean may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let weep fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where green valley meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying lost love away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So play and call with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Early blues 46 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never grow apart,
And may our love still grow.
