Track byThin Lizzy
The boom time it is over A ghost town is all that's here The gold rush it is over And depression days draw near So tonight after sundown I'm gonna pack my case Without a word, without a sound Disappear without a trace Oh I'm going southbound Oh I'm going southbound Drifting like a drover Chasing my career From the ships docked in the harbour New horizons will appear Tumbling with the tumbleweed Down the open road I'll be taking just what I need Before my head explodes Oh I'm going southbound Oh I'm going southbound Southbound Oh I'm going southbound Oh I'm going southbound Hey, you're not getting any younger The wild west has already been won Northern nights are growing colder And the old eastern ways are gone So tonight after sundown I'm gonna pack my case Without a word, without a sound Disappear without a trace Oh I'm going southbound Oh I'm going southbound New horizons will appear Oh I'm going south from here Without a word, without a sound I've got to leave this ghost town Oh let's go down to Rio I got to go Oh you know I'm southbound Southbound
