It`s Not My Cross To Bear — текст песни (The Allman Brothers Band)

I have not come, yeah, to testify
about our bad, bad misfortune and I ain`t here a wond`rin` why.
But I`ll live on and I`ll be strong
`cause it just ain`t my cross to bear.

I sat down and wrote you a long letter, it was just the other day.
Said, sure as the sunrise, baby, tomorrow I`ll be up and on my way.
But I`ll live on and I`ll be strong
`cause it just ain`t my cross to bear.

But in the end, baby, long towards the end of your road,
don`t reach out for me, babe, `cause I`m not gonna carry your load.
But I`ll live on and I`ll be strong
`cause it just ain`t my cross to bear.
