flatlanders - goin' away lyrics
by utah phillips
is that the moon i see
over there in the west?
or just a headlight beam
c&o express?
i know she’s gone
whatever i say
and it won’t be long
’til i make up my mind
and go away
is that the sun coming up
on that eastern sh-r-
or just a coal fire glow
behind the firebox door?
i know she’s gone
whatever i say
and it won’t be long
’til i make up my mind
and go away.
see that man? he can’t hear the whistle
the d-mned old fool’s caught out on the trestle
he can’t go forward and he can’t go back
the train kept a-rollin’
brushed him off the track
other winds may blow
and the storm will rise
still i long to go
where the fast mail flies
i know she’s gone
whatever i say
and it won’t be long
’til i make up my mind
and go away
see that man…
