There ain't no Santa Claus on the evening stage

There ain't no way to pull the curtain

And hide from hunger's rage

There ain't no town to stop in

There ain't no time to stop in

There ain't no straw for my horse

There ain't no straw for my bed

There ain't no comfort in cold boards

There ain't no rumours or food for my stomach

And someday I'm gonna be saved

Because I gotta eat and drink and breathe and sleep

And I'm ah slave aaaaah

Down in hominy's grotto there's a soul die and leaving

Every second on the evening stage

There's a soul die and rotting and picking

Some new kinda cotton

With his fingers broken and his heart and back forgotten

There ain't no Santa Claus on the evening stage
