MANY A MILE
(Patrick Sky)

I've damn near walked this world around
Another city, another town
Another friend to say goodbye
Another girl to sit and cry

CH: And its many a mile I have spent on this road
Its many a mile I have gone.

Now there was one who knew mw best
You know she gave my poor heart rest
She was my world, my heart, my dear
And now she's gone to God knows where

CH.

I've seen your towns, they're all the same
The only difference is in a name
And the only home I've ever knowed
Was a suitcase and the open road

CH.

So I'll fill my glasses up to the brim
And through my glass, my world looks dim
But I know outside there's light somewhere
Maybe my ramblin' will get me there

CH. plus-
And its many a mile I have spent on this road
And many a mile I will go.
