Allman Brothers Band, The Nancy lyrics

Walking in the midnight rain
Thought I heard a Southbound train
Call your name, Nancy

Walking in the rain all day
Guess there weren't nobody going my way
They didn't stop at all
But I'll get back to you if I have to crawl

Nancy, I've told you in my letter
Things didn't appear to be no better at all
And this ol' highway's a hell of a line
Nancy, I've just spent my last dime to make this call
Oh, Nancy, I'll get back to you if I have to crawl
Oh, yeah
Oh, Nancy
Oh, yeah, ohh, yeah, yeah

I left my home for a job in the city

It's a crying shame, it's a pity
It ain't living' at all

Nobody knows my name
They don't even give a hang about me 't all
Nancy, baby, I'm getting back to you if I have to crawl
Ohh

Nancy, I've told you in my letter
Things didn't appear to be no better at all
This ol' highway's a hell of a line
Nancy, I've just spent my last dime to make this call
Nancy, baby, I'll get back to you if I have to crawl
Oh, yeah yeah, oh oh, yeah yeah
Oh, Nancy
Oh, Nancy
