  • Recorded by hank williams
  • Words and music by pee wee king and redd stewart
  • [c] travelin [g7] down a lonely high-[c] way
  • I knew not [f] where the road would [c] end
  • Not a [f] penny in my [c] pocket
  • All a-[g7] lone without a [c] friend
  • In a [g7] little country [c] village
  • I met a [f] man and he was [c] blind
  • As I [f] helped him cross the high-[c] way
  • Oh! [am] lord I cried his [c] burdens are [g7] greater than [c] mine.
  • I can [f] see the light of day
  • I [c] need not feel my way
  • Yes, thy burdens are [g7] greater than [c] mine.
  • Met a lad while on my travels
  • Tryin hard to play the game
  • Though his leg was very crippled
  • And he could not speak his name
  • Yet, he smiled in understandin
  • Though life to him had been unkind
  • And as I watched, I cried in sorrow
  • Oh! lord his burdens are greater than mine.
  • I can speak my name aloud
  • Make my way among the crowd
  • Yes, his burdens are greater than mine.
  • Just by chance I passed a graveyard
  • I saw a young man kneelin there
  • In his hand, there were some roses
  • On his lips, there was a prayer
  • On a stone, these words were written
  • your soul is gods, your memry mine
  • And as I watched, I cried in sorrow
  • Oh! lord I see his burdens are greater than mine.
