They call me long gone I’m leavin’ town
Don’t try to follow I can’t be found
I’ll take my rainbow and the sunshine free
And the only worry that I have’s in the sole of my shoe.

They caught me bummin’ in the park one day
You saw me thumbin’ on the old highway
Well listen baby don’t you know
That your dear old daddy’s got a home every where I go.

Well you took my money and my big fine farm
You thought you’d beat me but you didn’t by far
Well the big boys got me oh but I got away
And you’re gonna miss your dear old daddy some of these days.

Just need to follow that old black crow
Happy-go-lucky every where I go
Ain’t got no worries ain’t got no cares
An easy road and a lonesome road is all I share.
