I ain't got no home, I'm just a-roamin' 'round,
I’m just a wandrin' worker, I go from town to town.
The police make it hard for me wherever I may go
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

My brothers and my sisters are stranded on this road,
A hot and dusty road that a million feet have trod;
The rich man took my home and drove me from my door
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

I ain't got no home, I'm just a-roamin' 'round,
I’m just a wandrin' worker, I go from town to town.
The police make it hard for me wherever I may go
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

Was a-farmin' on the shares, and always I was poor;
My crops I lay into the banker's store.
My wife took down and died upon the cabin floor,
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.

I mined in your mines and I gathered in your corn
I’ve been working, mister, since the day that I was born
Now I worry all the time like I never done before
'Cause I ain't got no home in this world anymore

Now as I look around, it's mighty plain to see
This world is such a great but a funny place to be;
Oh, the gamblin' man is rich an' the workin' man is poor, 
And I ain't got no home in this world anymore.
