(As recorded by Patsy Cline 1/8/59) 



Well, I'm chasin' the blues

Right out of my mind

I'm leavin' my cares

And worries behind

Cause I'm on my way

I'm leavin' town today



My lonesome old heart

Is broken into

I've been walkin' the floor

Every night over you

But our love is all gone

I'm movin' on

I'm a-leavin' town today



I got no love, no cares

Just heartaches

I'm leavin' them all behind

Like the sun and the moon

And the stars above

We're gonna be one of a kind



Well, I'm movin' along

I gotta be free

I'll find a new love

Wherever I'll be

But my old love is gone

I'm movin' on

I'm a-leavin' town today



I got no love, no cares

No heartaches

I'm leavin' them all behind

Like the sun, and the moon

And the stars above

We're gonna be one of a kind



Well I'm movin' along

I gotta be free

I'll find a new love

Wherever I'll be

But my old love is gone

I'm movin' on

I'm a-leavin' town today

I'm leavin' this town today
