josh ritter - lawrence, ks (can't leave this world behind) lyrics
dirt roads and dry land, farming might be the death of me
but i can’t leave this world behind
debts are not like prison where there’s hope of getting free
and i can’t leave this world behind
i’ve been from here to lawrence, kansas
trying to leave my state of mind
trying to leave this awful sadness
but i can’t leave this world behind
south of delia, there’s a patch out back by the willow trees
and i can’t leave this world behind
it’s a fenced in piece of nothing where i hear voices on my knees
and i can’t leave this world behind
some prophecies are self fulfilling
but i’ve had to work for all of mine
better times will come to me, god willing
’cause i can’t leave this world behind
this world must be frightening, everybody’s on the run
and i can’t leave this world behind
and my house is a wooden one and it’s built on a wooden one
seems i can’t leave this world behind
preacher says when the master calls us
he’s gonna give us wings to fly
but my wings are made of hay and corn husks
so i can’t leave this world behind
