I Just Can't Work No Longer

(Billy Butler & The Chanters)

I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't getting any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow

When clouds come, it's raining

The sun comes and shines

Lord, I ain't complaining

I've done wrong and

I'm serving my time

Now if there's any good in me

I'll bring it out so that you might see

That I'm just another lonely man

Who wants to stop my sin

Let all over begin

I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't getting any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow

This woman on the other side

She's my joy and all of my pride

Though I hurt her so constantly

My woman love can have faith in me

But how long can a good thing last

And I vow never to hurt in the past

Will she be there, waiting for me

My time is up and I'm finally free

I just can't work no longer

I've got to see my woman right now

And we ain't getting any younger

I've got to get to her love somehow
