Tomorrow I'll be up and on my way
'Cause I'm not gonna carry your load
And I ain't here a wonderin' why
I have not come, yeah, to testify
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear, oh no
But I'll live on and I'll be strong
Oh but I'll live on, I'll be strong
But I'll live on and I'll be strong
I sat down and wrote you a long letter
It was just the other day
Said, sure as the sunrise, baby
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear, it's not baby
But I'll live on, I'll be strong
Long towards the end of your road
But in the end, baby
Don't reach out for me, babe
About our bad, bad misfortune
