New Town |
The road goes straight to the town I’m headed for |
Pretty cold town that I never seen before |
I’ve trouble on my mind hope this new town will be kind |
New people and a new job is what I need to find |
New town new town now don’t you let me down |
I’ve travelled seven hundred miles |
To be where I am bound |
New town new town I’d like a chance to stay |
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way |
My life isn’t easy as I hear the new town call |
You’re headin for a future or you’re ridin for a fall |
And all through the day I can hear the old town say |
You can’t beat your troubles if you run the other way |
New town new town now don’t you let me down |
I’ve travelled seven hundred miles |
To be where I am bound |
New town new town I’d like a chance to stay |
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way |
Time is dragging as the road stretches on |
And while the wheels are turning |
My past is further on |
And as the trees are going by I wonder what I’ll do |
And why I left the old town to gamble with a new |
New town new town now don’t you let me down |
I’ve travelled seven hundred miles |
To be where I am bound |
New town new town I’d like a chance to stay |
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way |
New town new town now don’t you let me down |
I’ve travelled seven hundred miles |
To be where I am bound |
New town new town I’d like a chance to stay |
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way |
