Hornets

There ain't nothin' left for me here, I gotta get out

Spent the better part of twenty-nine years just tryin' to get out

Got no one runnin' after me

Pray these two feet carry me south

Then out of the corner of my eye, you're lookin' at me

I've got wanderlust all painted on my thigh, you're weak in the knees

Let's leave town by the frontage road

Follow the sound of the blackest crow south

Would that you were goin' away and I was goin' with you

I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes

If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?

I'll be there to have and hold you

We've only traveled seventeen miles, you wanna turn back

Don't leave your little girl in the wild, the sky's turnin' black

Play tug-o-war till the mornin' comes

Find the road, stick out your thumb

Hold it there, if no one comes, just run

Got no one runnin' after me

Pray these two feet carry me

Would that you were goin' away and I was goin' with you

I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes

If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?

I'll be there to have and hold you

My rations runnin' low and I'm alone when I hit the state line

Turnin' back is the only way to go, back to what's mine

I'll die in the bed that I was born in

Gone from this world without warnin', babe

Would that you were goin' away and I was goin' with you

I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes

If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?

I'll be there to have and hold you

Would that you were goin' away and I was goin' with you

I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes

If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?

I'll be there to have and hold you
