Now tell me : where my easy rider's gone Now easy riding woman : always in the wrong Well easy rider : died on the road I'm a poor blind man : ain't got nowhere to go It's going to be the time : that a woman don't need no man Then baby shut your mouth : and don't be raising sand The train I ride : don't burn no coal at all The coal I'm burning : everybody says it's cannonballs I mean I went to the depot : and set my suitcase down The blues overtake me : and tears come rolling down The woman I love : she must be out of town She left me this morning : with a face that's full of frowns I got a gal across town : she crochets all the time Baby if you don't quit crocheting : you going to lose your mind Said fair brown : what's the matter now You turn your back to quit me : woman and you don't know how
