"One More Mile To Go" lyrics - OTIS SPANN

It's been a hard devil journey
And I don't have to cry no more
Baby keep your light a-burnin'
So your man will know the score

One more mile, one more mile to go
It's been a hard devil journey baby
And I don't have to cry no more
I been wrong when I took a gamble

You know I bet my money wrong
I was bettin on my baby
But my baby wasn't at home
One more mile, one more mile to go

It's been a hard devil journey baby
And I don't have to cry bout you no more
You know they tell me every school kid
You know they often has a mate

But this woman that I'm lovin'
She only lives in this one state
One more mile, only got one more mile to go
Well, it's been a hard devil journey baby

And I don't have to cry no more
I did wrong to take a gamble
You know I bet my money wrong
I was bettin' on my baby

And my baby wasn't at home
One more mile, one more mile to go
It's been a hard devil journey
I don't have to cry no more
