Lyrics

Here I go once again, with my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road
Mama said, "Listen child
You're too old to run wild
You're too big to be fishin' with the boys these days"
So I grabbed some clothes and ran
Stole five dollars from a sugar can
A 12-year-old jail breaker runnin' away
And here I go once again, with my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road
Well, I married a pretty good man
And he tries to understand
But he knows I've got leavin' on my mind these days
When I get that urge to roam
I'm just like a kid again
The same old jail breaker runnin' away
Here I go once again
With my suitcase in my hand
And I'm running away down River Road
And I swear, once again, that I'm never coming home
I'm chasing my dreams down River Road
