Can't Work No Longer

I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't gettin' any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow

When clouds come it's rainin'

The sun come and shine now

Lord, I ain't complainin'

I've done wrong and I'm servin' my time

But now, if there's any good in me

I'll bring it out so that you might see

That I'm just another lonely man

That wants to stop my sins and all over begin

And now, I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't gettin' any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow

This woman on the other side

She's my joy and all of my pride

Though I've hurt her so constantly

Still my woman loves and has faith in me

But how long can a good thing last

Though I vow never to hurt the past

Will she be there waitin' for me

Five long years when I will be free

And I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't gettin' any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow
