Rider

(album: Sunny Side! - 1963)

Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss your daddy rolling in your arms

Well, the sun's gonna shine on my back porch some day
I said, the sun's gonna shine on my back porch some day
Then the wind from the river's gonna blow all my troubles away

Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss your daddy rolling in your arms

Well, I ain't got a nickel, no, I ain't got a lousy dime
Well, I ain't got a nickel, no, I ain't got a lousy dime
But I got a long way to go 'fore the end of my time

Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss your daddy rolling in your arms

It takes a hard hearted woman to make a long time men feel bad
It takes a hard hearted woman to make a long time men feel bad
'Cause it makes him remember the long hard road that he's had

Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well, I know you, Rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss your daddy rolling in your arms
