"Long Time Going" lyrics

"Long Time Going"

Fare-thee-well, my little darling
Where I'll end up, I just don't know
Hard times here, my little darling
So far away, I'm bound to go

Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone

When the chilly wind starts blowing
And the snow lays on the ground
If that old tax man comes a-calling
He'll look for me, but I won't be found

Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone

Some of these days, I'll be contented
Yeah, one of these days, no more I'll roam
I'm gonna be blue should you forget me
If ever I make my way back home

Traveling down the lonesome highway
Traveling down the lonesome road
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
Looking for a way to ease my trouble
Looking for a place where I belong
Gonna be a long time going when I'm gone
