[Verse 1]
Her coal-black eyes and her heartbroke smile
Followed me down a crooked mile
Everybody says we ain't no good
We ain't going back even if we could

[Verse 2]
Back in the woods where the law don't go
Down in the holler where the wind don't blow
Gonna raise us a family make us a home
We'll be alright if they leave us alone

[Chorus]
I ain't never had nothing
I ain't never had nothing to hold on to
I ain't even been living
I ain't even been living till I found you

[Verse 3]
She followed me down a crooked mile
She ain't got no spite, ain't got guile
She won't let me quit‚ won't let me run
Holding me tight‚ sleeping by her gun

[Chorus]
I ain't never had nothing
I ain't never had nothing to hold on to
I ain't even been living
I ain't even been living till I found you
[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Her coal black eyes and her heartbroke smile
Followed me down a crooked mile
Everybody says we ain't no good
We ain't going back even if we could

[Chorus]
I ain't never had nothing
I ain't never had nothing to hold on to
I ain't even been living
I ain't even been living till I found you

I ain't never had nothing
I ain't never had nothing till I found you
