Without A Song

Without a song the day will never end

Without a song the road will never bend

When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend

Without a song

That field of corn will never be a plow

That field of corn will be deserted now

A darkie's born, but he's no good no how

Without a song

I got my troubles and woe

But sure as I know, the Jordan will roll

I'll get along as long as my song

Is strung in my soul

I'll never know what makes the rain to fall

I'll never know what makes that grass to tall

I only know there ain't no love at all

Without a song

I got my troubles and woe

And sure as I know, the Jordan will roll

I'll get along as long as my song

Is strung in my soul

I only know what makes the rain to fall

I'll never know what makes that grass so tall

I only know there ain't no love at all

Without a song
