Now I was born a man of the road And I've been too long in this town You knew someday I'd go I guess I should have been gone before now 'Cause I'd never wear out a pair of shoes Walkin' from the kitchen to your bedroom Where I've spent most of my time Wishin' I was somewhere out the window Let me go now, oh, release my restless soul Let me go now, oh, won't you let me go? Remember when I first came I said I wasn't lookin' for ties And nothin' I said has changed Except my hello to goodbye If and when I ever settle down And I can find my way back to this ol' town If you're still free, then take what's left of me But don't stop me from leavin' Let me go now, oh, release my restless soul Let me go now, oh, won't you let me go? Oh, if and when I ever settle down And I can find my way back to this ol' town And if you're still free, then take what's left of me But don't stop me from leavin' Let me go now, oh, let me back out on the road Let me go now, oh, won't you let me go, let me go? Let me go now, oh, release this restless soul Let me go now, oh, won't you let me go? Girl, let me go now, please, please let me go now Girl, let me go now
