[Verse 1]
People expected to fall, hit that same old wall
Really they don't wanna help at all
They talk behind your back today
Shake their heads and say
Well, I always knew that the girl would come to no good anyway
[Chorus]
I better pack it up and go
Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where, you don't know
You don't know
God knows, everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking this train 'til the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine
[Verse 2]
I haven't been too well myself
A lot of time on the shell
Saying that I don't need help when I do, yes I do
But I'm gonna be just fine
A lot of friends a little while
Still I wish I could see you again sometime
[Chorus]
I better pack up and go
Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where, I don't know
I don't know
God knows, everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking this train 'til the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine
[Verse 3]
It's hard to open up the door
Like you've done so many times before
Sometimes you think you just can't do it anymore
Take a chance and take a train
Out into the pouring rain
And all you've got is your suitcase full of pain
[Chorus]
I better pack up and go
Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where, I don't know
I don't know
God knows, everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking this train 'til the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine
