You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah, |
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on. |
|
Then you went with me to A-la-bam', |
|
Things looked good in Birmingham, |
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on. |
|
I know you're tired of fol-low-ing |
|
My elusive dreams and schemes |
|
For they're only fleeting things, |
|
My elusive dreams. |
|
You had my child in Memphis then I heard of work in Nashville, |
|
But we didn't find it there so we moved on. |
|
To a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in Alaska, |
|
We didn't find it there so we moved on. |
|
I know you're tired of fol-low-ing |
|
My elusive dreams and schemes |
|
For they're only fleeting things, |
|
My elusive dreams. |
|
Now we've left A-las-ka because thewas no gold mine, |
|
But this time only two of us moved on. |
|
And now all we have is each other and a little memory |
|
To cling to and still you won't let me go on alone. |
|
I know you're tired of following |
|
My elusive dreams and schemes |
|
For they're only fleeting things, |
|
My elusive dreams. |
