Nowhere to Go but Back Lyrics

Well, me and my baby had a falling out
So I flew the coop and headed south
Hit the interstate, I was freedom bound
Everything was cool till Baton Rouge
Then I had to turn around

I'm like a train that's run out of track
I'm like a chain that's run out of slack
Hit a brick wall that just won't crack
Ain't nowhere to go but back
No, there ain't nowhere to go but back

I was going nowhere when I left
'Cause I wound up back on her doorstep
She gave me just enough rope to hang myself
I was doin' fine till I run out of line
And then it changed the way I felt

I'm like a train that's run out of track
I'm like a chain that's run out of slack
Hit a brick wall that just won't crack
Ain't nowhere to go but back
No, there ain't nowhere to go but back

I'm like a train that's run out of track
I'm like a chain that's run out of slack
Hit a brick wall that just won't crack
Ain't nowhere to go but back
No, there ain't nowhere to go but back

I'm like a train that's run out of track
I'm like a chain that's run out of slack
Hit a brick wall that just won't crack
Ain't nowhere to go but back
No, there ain't nowhere to go but back

No, there ain't nowhere to go but back
