Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys Rocky Road Blues lyrics

Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long, long, long
Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

I've got those blues, I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
I've got those blues, I'm wearing out the soles of my shoes
My gal went away and left me, she left me with the dog gone blues

Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long, long, long
Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

You'll never miss your water 'til the well runs dry
You'll never miss your water 'til the well runs dry
You'll never miss your woman until she says, "Goodbye"


Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long, long, long
Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone

I wish to the Lord, you'd bring my woman back home
I wish to the Lord, you'd bring my woman back home
I'm not so lonesome, just don't want to be alone

Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long, long
Now the road is rocky but it won't be rocky long
Another man has got my woman and gone
