Quit my job, ain't got no money
Seems I have to leave this town
Packed my bags, run to the station
Board the train that's eastward bound

[Chorus]
Tell mama and all the folks back home
Sometimes a man just feels
He's got to make it alone
Tell mama why I'm leaving so soon
Because this life I live
Has got me sick through and through

Nothing to do, that's why I had to go
Seemed no use in hanging 'round
I can't stop now, the ticket's in my hand
Board the train that's eastward bound

[Chorus]

Quit my job, ain't got no money
Seems I have to leave this town

[Chorus]
