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
