Muddy Waters - Lonesome Road Blues

Lyrics:

Have you ever been walking, walking down that ol' lonesome road?
Have you ever been walking, walking down that ol' lonesome road?
No place to go, whee well brown no place to room and board.

Things look so lonesome, down that road ahead.
Things look so dark, down that road ahead.
Been thinkin' of the way you livin', whee well boy and what your mother said.

Things look so lonesome; when you ain't got a shelter over your head.
Things look so lonesome; when you ain't got a shelter over your head.
When you could have been at home, whee well boy sleeping in a feather bed.

So lonely lonesome, when you gotta travel it all alone.
So lonely lonesome, when you gotta travel it all alone.
When all you have, whee boy she's dead and gone.

[NKPman]

With respect, I think the words in the first two lines of the final verse are: "This old road is lonesome, when you got ta travel it all alone....etc" See what you think?
