Lyrics
1. So many places have I traveled
Resting horses, and laid up my saddle
On the way to somewhere else
Laid up weathering the storm
Strangers attract attention
Some of its good
But usually it all ends badly
A pair of blue eyes, in a pretty gown
Temptation and strangers
In a one horse town
2. Time makes us wiser, but it isnt guaranteed
That we learn our lessons, from our deeds
The names may change, population shift
But some things will never change
3. The innocent eyes, dont understand consequences
The local boys, dont want to let go
Of the prettiest girls at the dance
Even if they never really had a chance
break
4. Pack up and moving on Your not welcome here
As 4 guys size you up, grinning ear to ear
You could fight them, just to save some pride
But nobody here is really on your side
5. Some say and I believe that its true
You just cant go back home again
And its equally true, you cant stay here
Move on rolling stone, just move on
