ROCKY ROAD BLUES
(Bill Monroe)

Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

I got those blues and I'm wearing the soles right out of my shoes
I got those blues and I'm wearing the soles right out of my shoes
My gal went away and left me, she left me with the doggone blues

Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

You never miss your water until the well runs dry
You never miss your water until the well runs dry
You never miss your woman until she says goodbye

Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

I wish to the Lord, he'd bring my woman back home
I wish to the Lord, he'd bring my woman back home
I'm not so lonesome, I just don't wanna be alone

[Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Lord, the road is rocky, but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone
