Nowhere Bound

The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
You save up your money, buy you some shoes The highway's calling and she's right on cue Just when you thought you had it beat You're leaving town on a one-way street [Chorus] It's a hard, hard lesson But you're gonna have to learn it It's a long cold swim up against the current And somewhere down the line You're gonna have to turn it around 'Cause boy right now you're nowhere bound Her words still echo through your mind But fade away as you cross the county line Running from trouble or from the truth It doesn't matter either way you lose [Chorus] Well you walk ten miles just to make new tracks But you turn around and find that it's twenty miles back And it's never gonna change it you keep leaving Your heart's gonna break, but never break even Where to now, do you know? One thing's 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
