I'm goin' away (x4)The cradle wants a baby
The kitchen wants a pan
The heart wants a certain kind of lover if it canThe ocean wants a sailor
The gun wants a hand
The money wants a spender
and the road wants a manI turn my face to the highway (x3)
And I turn my back on youThe devil wants a sinner
The sky wants a bird
The table wants a dinner
And the lips want herThe glass wants a wine
The fist wants to hurt
The clock wants the time
And the show wants the wordI turn my face to the highway (x3)
And I turn my back on youI'm goin' away (x4)The coal wants a miner
The soldier takes a stand
The walls of the prison want a solitary manThe window wants a curtain
The plow wants a lamb
Diamond ring wants to fit upon the finger of her handI turn my face to the highway (x3)
And I turn my back on youI'm goin' away (x14)
