Well here comes the story, baby, that I want you all to know
'Bought what brought me down, what got me feeling low
Started off one day and took off down the road
Seeking' my fame and fortune, and trying to tote the load
One man's loss is another man's gain
One man's pleasure is another man's pain
I left my woman in Jacksonville and took off down the line
She had her way of thinking and Lord knows I had mine
She could not take the pain of me not being home
Couldn't take the pain, baby, of staying all alone
One man's loss is another man's gain
One man's pleasure is another man's pain
Now when I left this town it was for her and for me
Now I'm home all alone, with a paper that says I'm free
I guess I'll hit the road again, and do what I do best
To hell with her, to hell with him, to hell with all the rest
One man's loss is another man's gain
One man's pleasure is another man's pain
One man's loss is another man's gain
One man's pleasure is another man's pain
Now tell me people, who's to blame?
