Well my rider done left me
Mama wouldn't even close the door
Now I'm drunk and I'm ornery
Sitting here on my dirty floor

Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home

Now I'm broke and I'm hungry
I've been out on the rails too long
Got a mind that is worried
That the end is coming up on me strong

Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home

Ah, woah, woah
Ah, woah, woah

Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home

If you see my old rider
If you see her out on some Friday night
Tell her I don't miss her
Well, won't you tell her time is treating me right

Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Someday love is gonna take me home
Shine along, shine along
Well, someday love is gonna take me home

Ah, woah, woah
Ah, woah, woah
