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 |
