Ain't Gonna Work Tomorrow

Chorus
I ain't gonna work tomorrow
I ain't gonna work today
I ain't gonna work tomorrow, Lord
For that is my wedding day

I've been all around this country
I've been all around this world
I've been all around this country, Lord
For the sake of one little girl

I love my mama and papa too
I love my mama and papa too
I love my mama and papa too
But I'd leave 'em both to go with you

I'm leaving you this lonesome song
I'm leaving you this lonesome song
I'm leaving you this lonesome song
Cause I'm gonna be gone before long
