Lyrics for Never No Mo' Blues

For weary weeks I waited And hoping for the best But blues will make me ramble And the rails are leading west I'm feeling oh, so lonesome Pleasure I can't find I'm leaving you mean mama Just to worry you off of my mind That old kindly whistle Just fall in line and smile Mean, my mama haunts me And I crave the peace of mind I don't know where I'm going I'm feeling kind of square I've been from several places And I'm going to be from here Seems there's something missing There's feelings in my breath I crave to cover distance So mean mama give me wreath I hear the rails a singing The sky is clear and blue I'm going to leave you mama When the train comes rolling through No money in my pocket I'm roving around so flat And soon I'll be strolling Down that railroad track And when I'm miles away Riding all the while I think of you mean mama I think of you and smile
