I hear the wind blow, it's callin' to me
Singin' true love's lonesome song
'Cuz old smyrna road's where my dreams long to be
Lord knows that's where I belong
All of my tears just keep fallin' like rain'
'Cuz that woman is all that I see
And old smyrna road will just keep callin' my name
'Til there's nothin' that's left of poor me
Yes, my girl's got a heart full of gold
Lord, and she's all that I know
But my sweet little baby's been taken away
Lord, down that old smyrna road
My heart is pinin'
My heart keeps pinin'
My poor heart keeps on pinin'
I lost my girl
On old smyrna road
Mean old smyrna road
Ooh-hoo-oo
Whoo!
Oh, have mercy
I've been alone, baby, way too long
Lookin' for what I have lost
My love will find you, and I will return
Some day when I get across
My heart is pinin'
My heart keeps pinin'
My poor heart keeps on pinin'
I lost my girl
Ooh, lost my world
Lord, down that mean old smyrna road
