Lyrics:

Monroe

Well the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Well the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Well another man has got my baby and gone.

I got the blues, I'm a-wearin' the soles right out of my shoes
I got the blues, I'm a-wearin' the soles right out of my shoes
My baby ran away and left me with the doggone blues.

You're gonna lap up this water till the old old well runs dry
You're gonna lap up this water till the old old well runs dry
You never miss your baby till she says goodbye.

Yeah.

Mmm the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
I said the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Well another man has got my baby and gone.

I got the blues, I'm a-wearin' the soles right out of my shoes
I got the blues, I'm a-wearin' the soles right out of my shoes
My baby ran away and left me with the doggone blues.

You're gonna lap up this water till the old old well runs dry
You're gonna lap up this water till the old old well runs dry
You never miss your baby till she says goodbye, goodbye.
