“Leave This Town”
( R. Crosby, J. Hilton)

I’m gonna leave this old town
I’m gonna find me a place where I can settle down
And I know that I am bound
To find me something that I have never found

I walked into you room and you were not there
I saw that you were late and didn’t care
I waited but you did not come home
So I’m going on down to the railroad track
I’m gonna take my trip alone

I’m gonna leave this old town
I’m gonna find me a place where I can settle down
And I know that I am bound
To find me something that I have never found

Well the sunlight through the window caught my eye
Made me pause to ponder how and why
A woman lord I knew she was loose and mean
Could take my heart and sew me down
Like the patches on my jeans

I’m gonna leave this old town
I’m gonna find me a place where I can settle down
And I know that I am bound
To find me something that I have never found
I’m gonna find me something that I have never found
