Lookin out my window Looking down the road I would like to go, far away Away from this place I wanna see the world Before I die Before too many years go by, I've got to go Before I get to old [Chorus] Cuz I'm goin away and I'm leavin today And I won't be back for a while Gettin on a train, a bus or a plane I'm gonna leave this place in style But before I go I just want you to know That although it hasn't been very long We'll meet again together my friend And we'll laugh and we'll sing this song Friends will leave you and they will say farewell And you can never tell, just why they go You don't know, you don't know I want light music to softly hit my ear You know I've been waiting for years To take a chance, and to dance, with the wind [Chorus] So I'm goin away and I'm leavin today And I won't be back for a while Gettin on a train, a bus or a plane I'm gonna leave this place in style But before I go I just want you to know That although it hasn't been very long We'll meet again together my friend And we'll laugh and we'll sing this song Cuz I can't be tied down Sittin in a on-horse town I've got to know, who I am I pray for you all the time You'll always be, on my mind And I hopw you understand That I'm goin away and I'm leavin today And I won't be back for a while Gettin on a train, a bus or a plane I'm gonna leave this place in style But before I go I just want you to know That although it hasn't been very long We'll meet again together my friend And we'll laugh and we'll sing this song And we'll laugh and we'll sing this song
