Pour my soul into my song
Playin' for the people all night long
I work hard for my money and I want it now
Don't make me have to tear your juke joint down

I'm a home homesick gypsy
I was born movin' down the line
I'm a homesick gypsy
I ain't home till I leave you behind

Now I'm hard as a white oak tree
A month on the road and three days sleep
I got a girl in every town I play
I'm sure missin' the one I had yesterday

My worst nightmare is standin' still
Gotta get my fix of those rollin' wheels
When I die don't ya dig no holes
Just scatter my ashes where the strong wind blows

I ain't home till I leave you behind
