I ain't got no home I'm just a-ramblin' round

I'm just a wandrin' worker I roam from town to town

The police make it hard wherever I may go

And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

My brothers and my sisters are stranded on this road

A hot and dusty road that a million feet done trod

Rich man took my home and drove me from my door

And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

Was a-farmin' on the share and always I was poor

My crops I laid into the banker's store

My wife took down and died upon the cabin floor

And I ain't got no home in this world anymore

Now as I look round it's mighty plain to see

The world is such a great and a funny place to be

The gamblin' man is rich and the workin' man is poor

And I ain't got no home in this world anymore
