Early Years: 1957-1969

Well there goes another day
Now I wonder why
You and I
Keep telling lies

I can't believe that what you say
'Cause tomorrows lullaby
Can't passify
My lonesome crying

Make believe that's all you know
And to make believe is a game
A child's rein
You've changed your name

So sadly I watched the show
I watched you became
Truth is the shame
Yeah, too much pain

Well now see., C. C. Rider,
well now see, see what you have done.
Well now see., C. C. Rider,
well now see, see what you have done.
Well you made me love you woman,
Now your man has come.

So I'm going away now baby
And I won't be back till fall,
I'm going away now baby
And I won't be back till fall,
Just might find me a good girl
Might not be coming back at all.

Well now see, C. C. Rider,
See now the moon is shining bright,
Well now see, C. C. Rider,
See now the moon is shining bright,
Just might find me that good girl
And everything would be alright.
