stop and listen close to what i'm saying
the time has come to let my feelings out
i'm clouded up and best be on my way now
for being here has really got me down
how long have i been down
and out in this small town
the road is calling me
and i'm bound to run
run away to tennessee
stop to pack my bags you know i've got 'em
just a few little things to get me on my way
don't need much don't got much i'm going
so won't you stop and say a sweet goodbye to me
