I've had enough of this dull place
I'm gonna leave and I'll make haste
The city girls are all the same
they take your love to play the game

I want a love that doesn't cheat
that kind of girl someday I'll meet
As soft as silk will be her hair
this maiden will be very fair

I'm leaving town farewell, goodbye
I won't be sorry, I'll never cry
I'm gonna travel on and on
Until I find my only one

I'll call her Silky and I'll stay
in the country far away
She will be lovely and fresh as dew
and she will make my dreams come true
