You save up your money boy, bought you some shoes
|
The highway's calling you and she's
|
Just when you thought you had it beat
|
But now 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:]
|
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.
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
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.
|
|
[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.
|
|
Nowhere bound
|
|
Nowhere bound...
|
