The road
goes
straight to the town I'm headed for
Pretty calm town that I've
never seen before
I've trouble on my mind,
hope this new town will be kind
New people and a new job
is what I need to find
New town, new town, now don't you let me down I've
traveled seven hundred miles to be where I am bound
New town, new town,
I'd like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town
and live a brand new way
My mind isn't easy as I hear
the new town call
You're heading for a future
or you're riding for a fall
And all through the day I can
hear the old town say
You can't beat your troubles
if you run the other way
New town, new town, now don't you let me down
I've traveled 700 miles to be where I am now
New town, new town,
I'd like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and
live a brand new way
Time is dragging as the road stretches on
And while the wheels are turning
My past is further on
And as the trees are going by
Why, I wonder, what I'll do
And why I left the old town
To gamble with the new
New town, new town,
now don't you let me down
I've traveled seven hundred miles
to be where I am bound
New town, new town,
I'd like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town
and live a brand new way
New town, new town, now don't you let me down I've
traveled seven hundred miles to be where I am bound
New town, new town,
I'd like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and live a
brand new way
You
