I don't know how I ever ended up here

I just came across a Y in the road and so I took it

Started talking to a man and he told me

It's a nice little town to settle down in, if you're looking

Well, thank you but I won't be staying long

It was just another place I don't belong



I left a little girl in Austin

And we kept on getting closer till I got cold feet

Every now and again I think about her

She was college educated with a PHD

Well, she was always right and I was wrong

It was just another place I don't belong



I'm like a wheel, I can't stop rollin'

On and on, I've gotta keep on going

Thank you but I won't be staying long

It was just another place I don't belong



I don't know how I ever ended up here

I didn't even have a reason, I got no sense of direction

Somehow I winded up in Nashville

Wrote some songs about my life the music world rejected

Don't fit our demographic, it's about what I expected

Word is, they got a way of ramblin' on

It's just another place I don't belong



I'm like a wheel, I can't stop rollin'

On and on, I've gotta keep on going

Thank you but I won't be staying long

It was just another place I don't belong



Thank you but I won't be staying long

It was just another place I don't belong
