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
And I think I can be lonesome far away in another town

I'm standing outside in the pouring rain
Every half an hour them trains come rolling back again
So the next time you come looking, I won't be around
'Cause I think I can be lonesome faraway in another town

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

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

So the sun is rising up over cold steel tracks
It's passing sad faces and the old burn out shacks
And it's winding me low and it's winding me down
And it's winding me lonesome, faraway in another town

'Cause I think I can be lonesome faraway in another town
