I'm broken down dirty on a one-way street
I'm broken down dirty with nothin' to eat
I'm just a gypsy child
And I know what's mine

No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

Well, I never had a place that I could call my own
I been broke out and runnin' since the day I was born
I'm livin' on the line

No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time, yeah

Ooh I've got no money in my pockets, I got holes in my shoes
They say when you got nothin', you got nothin' to lose
I get so tired and lonely, I don't care anymore
So back up every jack and I'm kissin' the floor

No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

So take me back down the road
'Cause it's the only way that I know
Just take me back down the road
No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

Do it, boy

So take me back down the road
'Cause it's the only way that I know
Just take me back down the road
No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

That's right
Bring it on, james

Somebody call a doctor
Need a medicine man
She put some funk and voodoo
In a one night stand
She can mess up my heart
She can mess up my mind
You know she'll never change me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

Here we go

So take me back down the road
'Cause it's the only way that I know
Just take me back down the road
No use in tryin' to save me
'Cause baby, I'm just doin' time

Come on
Yeah, yeah
I'm just doin' time
Ooh baby
I been down since I don't know when
I got these worn out shoes as my friend
I'm just
Come on
I know you hear me callin'
I said come on, baby
I know you hear me callin'
