lyrics

Where will my troubles go when they go?
Will they burst like a firecracker from within my soul?
Will they tumble like that old oak tree that the crows all called home?
Where will my troubles go when they go?

I been drinking corn liquor just to get drunk quicker
And drown this lovesick heart
Cause my girl's been seen running round on me
With every man with an electric guitar
But I'll do that woman right, I'll call her sister up tonight
I'll take her from her daddy's farm and I'll take her out behind the barn

Where will my troubles go when they go?
Though I work and plow, they're like a crop that just won't grow
But I feel them cold winds blowing, the country's calling me home
Where will my troubles go when they go?

I been playing Patsy Cline and sipping strong moonshine
For seventeen nights and days
And all my kinfolk are praying and the preacher man is saying
I should change my sinful ways
But I'll bet this broken heart can mend on liquor, lust, and sin
It's my saving grace and I'll be damned if I'll be led astray

Where will my troubles go when they go?
Will they no longer burden this lonesome, broken soul?
Will I hear that freight train coming when it's bound to carry me home?
Where will my troubles go when they go?
