phil ochs - on my way lyrics

Loading...

well, sometimes i am happy, sometimes sad,
thinkin’ of the good times i have had,
thinkin’ of the places i have been —
sometimes down, sometimes up, sometimes in.

on my way — to another workin’ day.
on my way — and i wish that i could stay.
on my way — but i have no time to play,
and i hope that i will see you on my way.

and i got me a job in buffalo,
and it’s cold when those chilly lake winds blow,
and it’s hot when that steel furnace glows;
it was dirty when that steel smoke rose.

on my way — to another workin’ day.
on my way — and i wish that i could stay.
on my way — but i have no time to play,
and i hope that i will see you on my way.

then california called me for a while,
and the sun was shinin’ every single mile.
it was gettin’ so darned crowded i could cry,
crossin’ land and sea and fallin’ from the sky.

on my way — to another workin’ day.
on my way — and i wish that i could stay.
on my way — but i have no time to play,
and i hope that i will see you on my way.

and i’ve been all along the southern sh-r-,
and the people there were lookin’ mighty poor.
they were waitin’ for the factories to arrive,
and some of them were fightin’ to survive.

on my way — to another workin’ day.
on my way — and i wish that i could stay.
on my way — but i have no time to play,
and i hope that i will see you on my way.

yes, i’ve been all up and down the line,
but somehow my money stayed behind.
a good payin’ job is hard to find,
and the graveyard’s lookin’ for another sign.

on my way — to another workin’ day.
on my way — and i wish that i could stay.
on my way — but i have no time to play,
and i hope that i will see you on my way.
