Ain't Ever Goin' Back

Come out of a fireball Notes burning and the letters scrawled I ain't ever goin' back no more Bare light, bulb and a hotplate Was there that I finally met my fate And I ain't ever goin' back no more She danced the room and she made it fine I sang a song about a crooked line I ain't ever goin' back no more And she's my first love and she's my last Don't ask me how it ever came to pass 'Cause I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever going back no more Wouldn't even try to find that door I ain't ever goin' back no more I don't care what the past has in store I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more A pint of gin and a long bus trip Somebody said, "You just get over it" And I ain't ever goin' back no more I see her face at every shitty bar That I have to play to pay for this guitar And I ain't ever goin' back no more I'm singing every song for her tonight So bartender, would you hit the lights? 'Cause I ain't ever goin' back no more A little something to remember me It's been so long, Lord, she mustn't see I ain't ever goin' back no more And I ain't ever goin' back I ain't ever goin' back no more Wouldn't even try to find that door I ain't ever goin' back no more I don't care what the past has in store I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more Dust settles in a darkened room Whiskey steals away the sense of doom And I ain't ever goin' back no more We made love and we made hate Never could seem to get it straight I ain't ever goin' back no more, baby You're branded on my soul and in my mind I keep running up and down this old fence line I ain't ever goin' back no more Only one thing in my life is true Honey, I will remember you And I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more Wouldn't even try to find that door I ain't ever goin' back no more Don't care what the past has in store I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more Wouldn't even try to find that door I ain't ever goin' back no more I don't care what the past has in store I ain't ever goin' back no more I ain't ever goin' back no more I ever goin' back no more Ever goin' back no more Ever goin' back no more
