New Town

Phil Ochs

The road goes straight to the town Im headed for
Pretty cold town that I never seen before
Ive trouble on my mind hope this new town will be kind
New people and a new job is what I need to find
New town new town now dont you let me down
Ive travelled seven hundred miles
To be where I am bound
New town new town Id like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way
My life isnt easy as I hear the new town call
Youre headin for a future or youre ridin for a fall
And all through the day I can hear the old town say
You cant beat your troubles if you run the other way
New town new town now dont you let me down
Ive travelled seven hundred miles
To be where I am bound
New town new town Id like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way
Time is dragging as the road stretches on
And while the wheels are turning
My past is further on
And as the trees are going by I wonder what Ill do
And why I left the old town to gamble with a new
New town new town now dont you let me down
Ive travelled seven hundred miles
To be where I am bound
New town new town Id like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way
New town new town now dont you let me down
Ive travelled seven hundred miles
To be where I am bound
New town new town Id like a chance to stay
Leave behind the old town and live a brand new way
