I got no home

I'm just a-roamin' 'round

Just a wandrin' worker

I go from town to town

And 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 have 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 shares

And always I was poor;

My crops I lay 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 around

It's mighty plain to see

This world is such a great

And a funny place to be;

Oh the gamblin' man is rich

An' the workin' man is poor

And I ain't got no home

In this world anymore
