I've got a friend said that she'd invite me.

I came here in the morning,
And I crept out in the middle of the night.
I gave nobody warning I was leaving,
And felt it was right.

Now I'm off again,
E A
And it sure is feeling alright.

Got a feeling that I'm leaving
with a ticket and I won't jump a ride
It's no good you believing
that my leaving was a-wrong, it was right

Now I'm off again,
E A
And it sure is feeling alright.

I can't afford a ticket on an old Dakota airplane,
I gotta jump a ride on a cattle trucking slow train.

I guess it doesn't matter,

As long as I can get my head down in the sun.

I wrote a rocking song, gonna sing it at the station,
I'll finish all the words when I reach my destination.
