On My Way [Demo-Version] Lyrics

[Intro]
Here’s a song that’s a straight, um
Folk song, more or less called “On My Way”

[Verse 1]
Well, sometimes I am happy, sometimes sad
Thinkin’ of the good times I’ve had
Thinkin’ of the places I have been
Sometimes down, sometimes up, sometimes in[Chorus]
On my way to another workin’ day
On my way and I wish that I could stay
On my way, I’m just waitin’ for my pay
And I hope that I will see you on my way
[Verse 2]
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[Chorus]
On my way to another workin’ day
On my way and I wish that I could stay
On my way, I’m just waitin’ for my pay
And I hope that I will see you on my way[Verse 3]
Then California called me for a while
And the sun was shinin’ every singlе mile
But it got so crowded I could cry
Crossin’ land and sea and fallin’ from thе sky[Chorus]
On my way to another workin’ day
On my way and I wish that I could stay
On my way, I’m just waitin’ for my pay
And I hope that I will see you on my way[Verse 4]
And I’ve been all along the Southern shore
And the people there were lookin’ mighty poor
They was waitin’ for some factories to arrive
And some of them were fightin’ to survive
[Chorus]
On my way to another workin’ day
On my way and I wish that I could stay
On my way, I’m just waitin’ for my pay
And I hope that I will see you on my way[Verse 5]
Yes, I’ve been all up and down the line
But somehow, my money stayed behind
You know a good payin’ job is hard to find
And the graveyard’s lookin’ for another sign[Chorus]
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[Outro]
Yes, I hope that I will see you on my way
