Lyrics

I have not come, yeah, to testify
About our bad, bad misfortune and I ain't here a wond'rin' why
But I'll live on and I'll be strong
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear

I sat down and wrote you a long letter, it was just the other day
Said, sure as the sunrise, baby, tomorrow I'll be up and on my way
But I'll live on and I'll be strong
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear

But in the end, baby, long towards the end of your road
Don't reach out for me, babe, 'cause I'm not gonna carry your load
But I'll live on and I'll be strong
'Cause it just ain't my cross to bear
