Settle Down (Goin' Down That Highway) Songtext

von Peter, Paul & Mary

I'm goin' down that highway, goin' to another town.
Baby when I find what I'm looking for, well then maybe I'll settle down.

Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.

I worked my way from Boston to that San Francisco Bay
Baby what I was looking for, I couldn't find along the way.

Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.

Never been contented no matter where I roam
It ain't no fun to see a settin' sun when you're far away from home.

Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.

I've worked in the mills of Pittsburgh, in the hills of Tennessee,
Baby all I want is to find a job that will set my mind at ease.

Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.

Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
Why don't you help me brother, I'm a stranger in your town
Why don't you help me sister, and then maybe I'll settle down.
