Lyrics

0:08There ain't nothin' left for me here
0:11I gotta get out
0:14Spent the better part of 29 years just tryin' to get out
0:20Got no one runnin' after me
0:22Pray these two feet carry me south
0:26Then out of the corner of my eye
0:29You're lookin' at me
0:32I've got one painted on my thigh
0:35You're weak in the knees
0:38Let's leave town by the frontage road
0:40Follow the sound of the blackest road south
0:47Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
0:50I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
0:55If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
0:59I'll be there to have and hold you
1:11We've only travelled 17 miles
1:14You wanna turn back
1:17Don't leave your little girl in the wild
1:20The sky's turnin' black
1:23Play tug-o-war til the mornin' comes
1:25Find the road
1:26Stick out your thumb
1:27Hold it there
1:28If no one comes just run
1:41Got no one runnin' after me
1:43Pray these two feet carry me
1:48Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
1:51I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
1:56If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
2:00I'll be there to have and hold you
2:12My rations runnin' low and I'm alone when I hit the state line
2:18Turnin' back is the only way to go
2:21Back to what's mine
2:24I'll die in the bed that I was born in
2:26Gone from this world without warnin' babe
2:32Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
2:36I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
2:40If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
2:44I'll be there to have and hold you
2:48Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
2:51I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
2:56If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
3:00I'll be there to have and hold you
There ain't nothin' left for me here
I gotta get out
Spent the better part of 29 years just tryin' to get out
Got no one runnin' after me
Pray these two feet carry me south
Then out of the corner of my eye
You're lookin' at me
I've got one painted on my thigh
You're weak in the knees
Let's leave town by the frontage road
Follow the sound of the blackest road south
Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
I'll be there to have and hold you
We've only travelled 17 miles
You wanna turn back
Don't leave your little girl in the wild
The sky's turnin' black
Play tug-o-war til the mornin' comes
Find the road
Stick out your thumb
Hold it there
If no one comes just run
Got no one runnin' after me
Pray these two feet carry me
Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
I'll be there to have and hold you
My rations runnin' low and I'm alone when I hit the state line
Turnin' back is the only way to go
Back to what's mine
I'll die in the bed that I was born in
Gone from this world without warnin' babe
Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
I'll be there to have and hold you
Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
I'd sit myself right down and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
If I lose you down the road would you look over your shoulder
I'll be there to have and hold you
