Been hangin' around this ol' town for quite some town now
Got a house but sure as shootin' it ain't my home
Got a girl that calls me baby, wants to love me, wants to lay me
But sure as shootin' she ain't my own
She looks me in the eyes and I swear they're beautiful
Almost makes me wish I had a heart
But you keep holdin' me back, holdin' me back, holdin' me back
You keep holdin' me back, babe, I'm gonna tear you apart
It's just one of those things a man's gotta do
One of those things a man's gotta do
One of those things a man's gotta do
And this one's lettin' go of you
One of these days comin' up real soon, gonna jump on a train and get out of this room
Lord knows I'm feelin' fenced in
Ain't fit to brag but I'll tell ya right now, I'm way too big for a house in this town
If I stay too long my head'll cave in
I've got a fever for the road
I also got some kinda load
She said she loves me, I said now baby
Baby I gotta get the hell outta Dodge before I go crazy
It's just one of those things a man's gotta do
One of those things a man's gotta do
One of those things a man's gotta do
And this one's lettin' go of you
Then she said you've got nothin' left here but love
She said you've got nothin' left here but love
She said you've got nothin' left here but love
And that ain't what you're dreaming of
Then I said I've got nothin' left here but love
I said I've got nothin' left here but love
I said I've got nothin' left here but love
And that ain't what I'm dreaming of
