Davy's on the Road Again

Davy's on the road again

Wearin' different clothes again

Davy's pickin' up a buck

To soothe his simple needs.

All his goods are sold again

His word's as good as gold again

He says if you see my Baby, I hope she understands.

Baby, I’ve been runnin' long

Since the day  down in the hollow

When my mind went driftin' off

Where my feet were soon to follow

Shut the door. Cut the light

Davy want be home tonight

You can wait till the dawn rolls in

You won't see your Davy again

Davy's on the road again

Wearin' different clothes again

Davy's turning handouts down

To keep his pockets clean

He's sayin' his goodbyes again

Wheels are in his eyes again

He says if you see my Baby, I hope she understands.

Bow down to the big towns.

They'll set you on your heels

I bought a mouth full of memories

And a lot of stickers for my windshield

Shut the door. Cut the light

Davy want be home tonight

You can wait till the dawn rolls in

You won't see your Davy again

Davy’s gettin’ old now

His handshake’s gettin’  cold now

He says if you see my Baby, I hope she understands.
