Capo 3rd Fret ...well I left New York in nineteen forty-nine to go across the country without a dad-blamed dime Mon - tana in the cold cold fall I found my father in a gam - bling hall father father where have you been I've been out in the world since I was only ten don't worry about me about to die of pleurisy cross the Mississippi cross the Tennessee cross the Niagara home I'll never be home in old Medora home in ol' Truckee Apalachicola home I'll never be for better or for worse or thick and thin like bein' married to the little wo - man god loves me just like I love him I want you to do just the same for him all the worms eat away but don't worry watch the wind all the worms eat away but don't worry watch the wind all the worms eat away but don't worry watch the wind so I left Montana on an old freight train the night my father died in the cold cold rain home in old Medora home in ol' Truckee Apalachicola home I'll never be, home i'll never be, home I'll never be
