The Road
Recorded by Waylon Jennings
Written by Ted Harris

G C G
Back home the family's eatin' dinner
C G
There's a fire in the fireside warm and bright
Am C
But I won't be there today cause I've got a debt to pay
Am D7 Em
And they don't let black sheep stray from the road
Am D7 G
No they don't let black sheep stray from the road

C G
My throat is cryin' now for water
C G
Lord that wind is blowin' cold
Am C
That guard is watchin' me like a hawk up in the tree
Am D7 Em
And I'm longin' to be free from the road
Am D7 G
Yes I'm longin' to be free from the road

C G
Every bone inside my body's achin'
C G
And that guard don't care if I live or die
Am C
He told me yesterday son don't try to get away
Am D7 Em
For I'll lay you down to stay by the road
Am D7 G
Yes I'll lay you down to stay by the road
