Well I'm leaving
Tonight babe on a midnight train
I got to get out while I still can
Cause that woman don't do nothing but bring me down
So I think I can be lonesome far away in another town

I'm standing outside in the pouring rain
Every half hour them trains come rolling back again
So the next time you come looking, no I won't be around
Cause I think I can be lonesome far away in another town

Somewhere where the wind blows just as cold
Well I think I can be lonesome on my own

Somewhere where the wind blows just as cold
Well I think I can be lonesome on my own

Oh so that sun is rising up over cold steel tracks
It's passing sad faces and old burnt out shacks
It's winding me low and it's winding me down
It's winding me lonesome far away in another town
It's winding me lonesome far away in another town
