I hate this town, I can't even count the reasons 

Don't know where I'm bound, all I know is that I'm leaving 

Down a dusty road that's been calling me for years 

Daddy just shook his head, Mama was fighting back the tears 

I said time to go, there aint nothing left but leaving 

When you know you know, you just can't fight that feeling 



You can climb the highest mountain, go where no one's ever gone 

On a crowded city sidewalk, you might find yourself alone 

In the middle of the desert, anywhere the wind blows 

Son you take yourself with you, wherever you go 



Got a taste of the city life, and them rollin' hills 

Man, them LA nights, gave this country boy a thrill 

But I never felt right, like I ever fit in 

So I kept moving on, now it's time to roll again 

When it's time to go, there aint nothing left but leaving 

When you know you know, like the changing of the seasons 



You can climb the highest mountain, go where no one's ever gone 

On a crowded city sidewalk, you might find yourself alone 

In the middle of the desert, anywhere the wind blows 

Son you take yourself with you, wherever you go 



Now I found out the hard way, and I made my own mistakes 

But my Daddy's words were with me every step of the way 



You can climb the highest mountain, go where no one's ever gone 

On a crowded city sidewalk, you might find yourself alone 

In the middle of the desert, anywhere the wind blows 

Son you take yourself with you, wherever you go 

Son you take yourself with you, wherever you go
