Nowhere Bound

You save up your money boy, bought you some shoes

The highway's calling you and she's

Just when you thought you had it beat

But now you're leaving town on a one-way street

Chorus:

It's a hard, hard lesson

But you're gonna have to learn it

It's a long cold swim up against the current

And somewhere down the line

You're gonna have to turn it, around

'Cause boy right now you're nowhere bound

Her words still echo through your mind

But fade away as you cross the county line

Running from trouble or from the truth

It doesn't matter either way you lose

Chorus:

It's a hard, hard lesson

But you're gonna have to learn it

It's a long cold swim up against the current

And somewhere down the line

You're gonna have to turn it, around

'Cause boy right now you're nowhere bound

--- Instrumental ---

Well, you walk ten miles just to make new tracks

But you turn around and find that it's twenty miles back

And it's never gonna change it you keep leaving

Your heart's gonna break, but never break even

Where to now, do you know?

One thing's for certain

Gonna reap just what you sow

And all you planted was heartache and pain

Don't look now but it looks like rain

Chorus:

It's a hard, hard lesson

But you're gonna have to learn it

It's a long cold swim up against the current

And somewhere down the line

You're gonna have to turn it, around

'Cause boy right now you're nowhere bound

Nowhere bound

Nowhere bound...
