No use cry-ing, talk-ing to a strang-er,
Nam-ing the sor-rows you've seen
Too man-y bad times, too man-y sad times
No-bod-y knows what you mean
Chorus:
But if some-how you could
pack up your sor-rows
and give them all to me
You would lose them, I know how to use them
Give them all to me
No use rambling, walking in the shadows,
trailing a wandering star
No one beside you, no one to hide you
and nobody knows what you are
(Chorus)
No use gambling, running in the darkness,
Looking for a spirit that's free
Too many wrong times, too many long times
Nobody knows what you see
(Chorus)
No use roaming, going by the roadside,
Seeking a satisfied mind
Too many highways, too many byways,
and nobody's walking behind
(Chorus)
