I woke up this morning bout half past five
to hear that old train rollin down the line
I heard that old whistle moanin the blues
found myself wearing holes in the souls of my boots
I stumbled down the stairs I was cursin the morn
grabbed my morning coffee snuck out the back door
took that city bus to the outskirts of town
your daddy's never gonna catch me now
he'll never catch me now
not no way, not no how
he'll never catch me now
I'm in another town
just another night out on the road
someone else's bed to let off my load
another grimy burned out motel room
lying next to someone girl I wish it was you
girl I wish it was you
bet you wish it was too
girl I wish it was you
I was making love to
but I left you a thousand miles behind
a thousand miles down them old steel lines
but keep in mind they come back around
I'll see you next time I'm in town
next time I'm in town
girl I'll see you around
next time I'm in town
He'll never catch me now
he'll never catch me now
not no way, not no how
he'll never catch me now
I'm in another town
