Done laid around, done stayed around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, summer's almost gone [winter's coming on]
Done laid around, done stayed around this old town too long
And I feel like I want to travel on

The chilly wind will soon begin and I'll be on my way
Gone a lonesome day, gone a lonesome day [going home to stay]
The chilly wind will soon begin and I'll be on my way
And I feel like I want to travel on

There's a lonesome freight at 6:08 coming through the town
I'll be homeward bound, I'll be homeward bound
There's a lonesome freight at 6:08 coming through the town
And I feel like I [just] want to travel on

Done hung around, done sung around, this old town all year
Winter's almost here, winter's almost here
Done hung around, done sung around, this old town all year
And I feel like I want to travel on
