One more city, one more town One more long, long road to travel on One more lonely day to pass One more empty whiskey glass One more girl to forget when I'm gone I must get out on the road Even though I'd rather stay with you But I'm scared that if I do I might fall in love with you And that, my friend, is a thing I mustn't do! If I'd known before we kissed That I'd feel the way I do I would have never ever passed your way But in the silence of the night When you held me so tight Was then, I knew, I must be on my way So I thank you for the wine And for the night, you lay there by my side I will think of you a while Your eyes, your hair, your smile While I'm waiting for a car to let me ride Yes, I go down to the south Where the wind and the sun will burn me brown Where waiting there for me Are the mountains and the sea And another lonely, lonely town One more city, one more town One more long, long road to travel on One more lonely day to pass One more empty whiskey glass One more girl to forget when I'm gone
