Easy Rider - Cassandra Wilson

Tell me where my easy rider’s gone

Tell me where my easy rider’s gone

Tell me where my easy rider’s gone

Easy rider’s women always in the wrong

Easy rider died out on the road

Easy rider died out on the road

Just a poor boy he had nowhere else to go

Now, there’s gonna be a time when woman don’t need no man

Yes, it’s gonna be a time when, when woman don’t need no man

So hush your mouth now, stop raisin' sand

I went down to the depot and I set my suitcase down

Said, I went down to, down to the depot and I sat my suitcase down

You know the blues overtook me and the tears come rollin' down

Now, the man I love, you know he must be out of town

The man that I love, must be out of town

He left me this mornin' with his face in a permanent frown

The train I ride don’t burn no coal at all

The train that I ride, it don’t burn no coal at all

And the coal that my baby is burning, everybody, everybody calls it the

cannonball

Tell me where my easy rider’s gone
