^DOld Man’s work is all he had left all we own was by blood and sweat an^Gd tears ^DSo Damn long God took him home had to be the first break he'd caught in ^Gyears

Just ^Emcarry on like you ^Gwant him to do work ^Emhard for my money and be a ^Cgood man through and ^G through ^CCarry on with thes^De North Count^Gry Blues

Ain’t a ^Ddime to my name, and I'll ^Galways be the same ^C As I walk in these broken cowb^Goy shoes ^DDevil take the blame for the ^Gweary and the maimed ^C As I carry on the^Dse North Country ^GBlues

I ^Dstab myself from the two I got ^Dbusted at the fort now I’m sitting at a ^Gfew God ^Ddamn 23 feels to damn old it’s ^Dhell at 40 or 50 more I’^Gm told

My ^Dbrothers up north have been ^Griding pins ^DI’m done here with ^Gfence to mend ^DHell or Highwater I got ^Cnothing left to ^Glose ^CCarrying on these ^D North Count^Gry Blues

Ain’t a ^Ddime to my name, and I'll ^Galways be the same ^C As I walk in these broken cowb^Goy shoes ^DDevil take the blame for the ^Gweary and the maimed ^C As I carry on the^Dse North Country ^GBlues

^DI went to college on a 5 year plan got a ^D4 year degree to go work with these 2^G hands ^DRode down the hard up all the damn time ^Done of these days I’m gonna find some luck of ^Gmine

So I’ll ^Empoint this truck back ^Gnorth again ^EmHead down the highway straight ^Gin the wind ^EmRun her up to 80 and ^Ckick her down in the ^Ggrooves ^CCarry on thes^De North Count^Gry Blues

Ain’t a ^Ddime to my name, and I'll ^Galways be the same ^C As I walk in these broken cowb^Goy shoes ^DDevil take the blame for the ^Gweary and the maimed ^C As I carry on the^Dse
