I'm leavin' Don't even try and slow me down Yeah I'm leavin' Gonna travel out of this town I'm tired of grieving Misery is all I've found Tears Can't dry the tears from my eyes Lonesome teardrops All I do is sit and cry Gotta stop the teardrops And shake the memories from my mind All you do is tie me down These ropes have got me bound And I can't take the strain That's why I'm grieving This misery and pain Are driving me insane And I've had a change of heart So start believing That I'm leavin' Don't even try and slow me down Yeah I'm leavin' Gotta travel out of this town I'm tired of grieving Misery is all I've found Heartache It's a sad and lonesome time Painful heartache Oh relief I can not find I gotta mend the heartbreak Of these old blues I'll leave behind All you do is tie me down These ropes have got me bound And I can't take the strain That's why I'm grieving This misery and pain Are driving me insane And I've had a change of heart So start believing That I'm leavin' Don't even try and slow me down Yeah I'm leavin' Happiness is where I'm bound No more grieving Goodbye to you I'm out of this town I'm leavin' I'm leavin'
