Saved up your money, bought you some shoes
The highway called and you heard it's cue
I bet you thought you had it beat
But now you're leavin' on a one-way street
It's a hard, hard lesson but you're gonna have to learn it
It's a long, cold swim up against the current
But somewhere down the line you're gonna have to turn it around
'Cause boy right now you're nowhere bound
Her words still echo in you mind
But fade away as you cross the county line
Runnin' from trouble or the truth
It doesn't matter either way you lose
(CHO), (LEAD)
When you walk ten miles just to make new tracks
Then you turn around and find that it's twenty miles back
And it's never gonna change if you keep leavin'
Your heart's gonna break but you never break even
Where to know and do 'ya know
One things for certain gonna reap just what you sow
And all you planted was heartache and pain
Don't look now but it looks like rain
(CHO)
