I was good to the man I loved and tried my best to help carry his load I was good to the man I loved and tried my best to help carry his load But you know its was all so heavy my back it bends and folds I keep my head held high, cause I know if I let it fall I'll cry I keep my head held high, cause I know if I let it fall I'll cry And all this weariness makes me heavy, so heavy I could die I can't wait for you baby, I've been sick and in the mud I can't wait for you baby, I've been sick and in the mud Well I'm done with that, ya know, I'm packing up my troubles and moving on When I found that mountain breeze I know I will find peace Yeah, when I find that mountain breeze I know I will find peace Gonna unload my burdens, let the salty sea set me free I'll keep searching 'til I find it, I won't rest until I do I'll keep searching 'til I find it, I won't rest until I do I got the rest of my days to get over you You know I tried so hard to hold on, did everything I could You know I tried so hard to hold on, did everything I could But you let me slip away baby, just like I knew you would
