Where I'm going down the road
                   Em
Get my girl on the line
       G                  D7      G
You'll find me there most any old time

                         Em
Now every day and Sunday too
  G            D7     G
I go to see my Pearly Blue
                             Em
Before you hear that rooster crow

You'll see me headed down the road

                               Em
Now old man Flatt he owned the farm
     G           D7     G
From the hog lot to the barn
                     Em
From the barn to the rail
        G             D7           G
He made his living by carrying the mail

                         Em
Now every time I get the blues
  G              D7           G
I walk the soles right off my shoes
                            Em
I don't know why I love her so
     G                 D7       G
That gal of mine lives down the road
