Leaving Lonesome Flats

I feel it coming like a highball train
Bearin' down on the end of the line
I see the black clouds following me
Like they're tied to the hands of time

I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats

I wish I had another day or two
But I don't have time to kill
You'll probably never see my face again
Once I make it across the hill, hey

I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats

I got to get away, get away, oh
I got to get away, get away, yeah
I got to get away, get away, yeah

I'm gonna have to burn the whole place down
If they try to throw the brick at me
I'm gonna run from the things I've done
'Cause I'm guilty in the first degree

I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats, yeah

I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
