[ Skeeter ]
|
I followed you to Texas I followed you to Utah
|
[ Bobby ]
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on
|
[ Skeeter ]
|
I followed you to Alabam things look good in Birmingham
|
[ Bobby ]
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on
|
[ Both ]
|
I know you're tired of following my elusive dreams and schemes
|
For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams
|
[ Skeeter ]
|
I had your child in Memphis you heard of work in Nashville
|
[ Bobby ]
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on
|
To a small farm in Nebraska to a gold mine in Alaska
|
[ Skeeter ]
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on
|
[ Bobby ]
|
Now we've left Alaska because there was no gold mine
|
[ Skeeter ]
|
But this time only two of us moved on
|
And now all we have is each other and a little mem'ry that we could to cling to
|
[ Bobby ]
|
But still you won't let me go on alone
|
[ Both ]
|
I know you're tired of following my elusive dreams and schemes
|
For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams
|
For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams
