"I Ain't Gonna Work Tomorrow" lyrics
(feat. The Carter Family)
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
Well, I'll hang my head in sorrow
I will hang my head and cry
Well, I'll hang my head in sorrow
As my darling passes by
Well, he told me that she loved me
And it caused my poor heart grief
Now he's got his back turned on me
And he's courting whoever he please
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
Well, I lost my money at gambling
And I lost my name, you see
I am nobody's darling
And nobody cares for me
Well, don't you hear my banjo a'ringing
Don't you hear it's mournful sound
Don't you hear those pretty girls laughing
Dancing on the cold cold ground
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
Well, I'll hang my head in sorrow
I will hang my head and cry
Well, I'll hang my head in sorrow
As my darling passes by
Well, he told me that she loved me
And it caused my poor heart grief
Now he's got his back turned on me
And he's courting whoever he please
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
Well, I lost my money at gambling
And I lost my name, you see
I am nobody's darling
And nobody cares for me
Well, don't you hear my banjo a'ringing
Don't you hear it's mournful sound
Don't you hear those pretty girls laughing
Dancing on the cold cold ground
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
And I may not work next day
Well, I ain't gonna work tomorrow
For it be a wet rainy day
