Paroles de Southbound

Hear the clickety-clack on the raliroad track
Means the wheels are rollin' and I'm goin' back
To the girl I left in a rundown shack
I'm southbound
As the miles rush by, I miss her more and more
Tears in my eyes and my heart is sore
Soon I'll be a-knockin' on her front door
I'm southbound
(Chorus)
Southbound, to my baby
Southbound, I'm nearly crazy
Gonna take her in my arms and never let her go
Never gonnna leave her, never ever anymore
Soon I'll be a-knockin' on her front door
I'm southbound
Now the rhythm of the wheels call a memory
Ev'ry mile it comes a little closer to me
Soon it's gonna be reality
I'm southbound
My heart keeps sayin', boy, you made a mistake
Thought you were a rambler, but you're only a fake
This'll be the last trip I'm a-gonna make
I'm southbound
(Repeat chorus)
Now the night that I left her, well, she pleaded with me
I know that you're leavin', but it has to be Not another day am I gonna waste
I'm southbound
(Repeat chorus)
