At The End Of The Day - Yonder Mountain String Band

Many times I’ve been out on the cold lonely road

My heart full of sorrow and pain

And I sing an old familiar song of the place that I belong

When my mind starts to think of home again

So many miles and so many roads

And people who don’t even know my name

So many times I’ve looked to western skies

Nowhere I go is quite the same

As that sweet home waiting for me

At the end of the day

Now my feet grow tired and the wind, it grows wild

And the road never seems to end

And my mind, it races on from the sunrise (she is gone)

Thoughts of old start to fill my head

And it’s too much confusion, too many lies

Too many times my heart has been broken right in two

I’ve shed too many tears thinkin' about those times

Cried too many rivers over you

Well, the lights up ahead they mean that I am near

I can smell the wood smoke in the air

And when I go back out again (and I long to return to)

My old home, I know she’ll be there
