People expect you to fall
You hit that same old wall
Really, they don't wanna help at all
They talk behind your back today
Shake their heads and say
"Gee, I always knew that the girl would come to no good, anyway"
Pre-Chorus
Gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo
If anybody wants to know where, you don't know, you don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking the train to the end of the line, yeah
Missing that boy a mile at a time
I haven't been too well myself
Too much time upon the shelf
Saying that I don't need help, when I do, I do
But I think I'm gonna be just fine
A lot of friends, a little wine
Still I'm wishing that I could see you again sometime
Pre-Chorus
I'm gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo
But if anybody wants to know where, you don't know, you don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking the train to the end of the line, yeah
Missing that boy a mile at a time
It's hard to open up that door
Like you've done so many times before
Sometimes you think you just can't do this anymore
Take a chance and take a train
Out into the pouring rain
When all you got there is your suitcase full of pain
Pre-Chorus
I'm gonna pack my bags and go to Detroit or Buffalo
But if anybody wants to know where, I don't know, I don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking the train to the end of the line, yeah
Missing that boy a mile at a time
OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)
I dreamed he'd wanna stay
I don't wanna waste away
God knows everybody's gotta go
God knows everybody's gotta go
God knows everybody's gotta go
