Letra de Old Rub Alcohol Blues

Troubles up and down these roads
And trials all the way around
Never knew what trouble was
'Til my darling threw me down
With nothing but old ragged clothes
My heartstrings broken to shreds
Blues were creeping over my body
Queer notions flying through my head
If ever I meet that girl again
Her troubles will all be o'er
I'll steal her out away from home
We will sail for some foreign shore
When my worldly trials are over
And my last goodbye I've said
Bury me near my darling's doorstep
Where the roses bloom and fade
My pockets are all empty
Like they've often been before
If ever I reach my home again
I'll walk these ties no more
The easiest thing I ever done
Was lovin' and drinking wine
The hardest thing I ever done
Was working out a judge's fine
The cheapest thing I ever done
Was sleeping out amongst the pines
The hardest thing I ever tried
Was keeping pork chops off of my mind
I've never worked for pleasure
Peace on Earth I cannot find
The only thing I surely own
Is a worried and troubled mind
If wine and women don't kill me
There's one more plan to find:
Soak up the old rub alcohol
Get these troubles all off of my mind
When my worldly trials are over
And my last goodbye I've said
Bury me near my darling's doorstep
Where the roses bloom and fade
