This world aint none of my home,
This world aint none of my home,
This world aint none of my home,

I'm going out of the sight of man,
I'm going out of the sight of man,
I'm going out of the sight of man. [Chorus]

And the devil can't do me no harm,
And the devil can't do me no harm,
And the devil can't do me no harm. [Chorus]
