Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mud takes hold of my Sunday shoes
Rain left ruts where the wagon rolled through
I tied my coat with a piece of twine
Got one heel left and a job to find
[Chorus]
I’m walking on to the next town road
With an empty sack and a heavy load
If they need two hands, I’ll work till night
Just point me where the pay is right
[Verse 2]
Past the bent fence, past the cotton gin
A crow watched close as I walked on in
My lunch was cornbread wrapped in a rag
And a name for a foreman in my coat pocket flap
[Chorus]
I’m walking on to the next town road
With an empty sack and a heavy load
If they need two hands, I’ll work till night
Just point me where the pay is right
[Verse 3]
The creek ran brown by the miller’s gate
I asked for work; he said, “You’re late”
I tipped my hat and I kept my pace
There’s another town past the lowland place
[Outro]
Mud on my cuffs, dust in my throat
Still got a mile and a borrowed coat
When morning comes, I’ll ask once more
For a day’s pay and a place indoors
