Think I'm gonna head to New York on a train

Take her with me if she'll take my name

But if she won't I'm going to that city just the same

I think I'm gonna head to New York on a train

Think I'm gonna drive to a town in Tennessee

Where the streets are filled with people more like me

And the ghost of Cash will pick me up when I'm knocked off my feet

Think I'm gonna drive to a town in Tennessee

Hey, don't let me go

Don't fall asleep

I've still got more to say

But don't rain on my hope

Don't fall asleep

I've still got more, she said

Go on and live a little if you want

For all I care live a whole lot

Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep

But when your self discovery is done

And your pride falls with the sun

I know an old park bench

If you need the rest

You can

Find a seat right next to me, I'll take your very best

Think I'm gonna move to a city way down south

Where no one knows my name or what I'm about

Lately people been talking just to open up their mouth

Think I'm gonna move to a city way down south

Would you rather me stand up and leave

So you can cash in on our fantasy

Maybe I got a fetish for saying things that I mean

But you would rather me stand up and leave

Hey, don't let me go

Don't fall asleep

I've still got more to say

But don't rain on my hope

Don't fall asleep

I've still got more, she said

Go on and live a little if you want

For all I care live a whole lot

Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep

But when your self discovery is done

And your pride falls with the sun

I know an old park bench

If you need the rest

You can

Find a seat right next to me, I'll take your very best

Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep
