Walking On New Grass

I'm like a cloud driftin' from town to town and each new love just helps me on my way
No one woman's ever gonna tie me down
When one gets too close I just back up and say
Well I gotta be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song
Tomorrow there's no telling where I'll be
But I'll be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song
The next time up the road keeps a callin' me
I'm warning you don't fall in love with me I don't plan on a being here too long
You're just a leaf caught in a playfull breeze
I'll carry you a while then be movin' on
Cause I gotta be walkin' on...
[ horns ]
I won't take roots I never stay that long and a bad seed just won't grow anyway
This rollin' stone don't want to gather no moss
So when the grass starts to grow then I'll be on my way
Cause I gotta be walkin' on...
The next time up the road keeps a callin' me
