[Verse] Back home the familys eating dinner Theres a fire in the fireside warm and bright But I wont be there today cause Ive got a debt to pay And they dont let black sheep stray from the road No they dont let black sheep stray from the road My throat is out crying for water Lord, that wind is blowing cold That guard is watching me like a hawk up in the tree And Im longing to be free from the road Yes, Im longing to be free from the road Every bone inside my bodys aching And that guard dont care if I live or die He told me yesterday son dont try to get away For Ill lay you down to stay by the road Yes, Ill lay you down to stay by the road...
