Well Miss Magnolia, you just can't keep Keep me to yourself You know I been here way too long You had me working all day long No, I'm not cut out and I wont be found And make a man for you, no, no
Well, if you see her make sure you tell Tell her that I'm gone to find the land beyond Where I'll be free, the river bold in me A rolling stone but by and by I'll find my home
I wrote a letter in the mail, it said "The steed don't need a mare Dearest Magnolia, well put flowers on the grave And make the headstone read We could get along but we never did belong"
Oh well Miss Magnolia, you just can't keep Keep me to yourself You know I've been here way too long You had me working all day long No, I'm not cut out and I won't be found And make a man for you, no, no, no
