You packed your things in a carpet bag Left home never looking back Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes Music wherever you go You don't fit in a small town world But I feel you are the girl for me Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes You're leavin' town where nobody knows You can win if you want If you want it you will win On your way you will see That life is more than fantasy Take my hand follow me Oh you gotta brand-new friend For your life You can win if you want If you want it you will win Oh, come on take a chance For a brand-new wild romance Take my hand for the night And your feelings will be right Hold me tight Oh darkness finds you on your own Endless highways keep on rollin' on You are miles and miles from your home But you never want to phone your home A steady job and a nice young man Your parents set your future plan Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes That's the way your story goes
