Karaoké When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back Confederate Railroad

I remember wakin' in the mornin' to the sound of the roosters crowin'

Mama cookin' in the kitchen and Arthur Godfrey on the radio

Me and Dad were just like strangers

We never did see eye to eye

It came to blows one Sunday mornin' so I packed my bags and I said goodbye

And when you leave that way you can never go back

A train won't run on a torn up track

Sometimes I wish I'd never roamed oh no 'cos when you leave that way you can never go home

Then I met a girl in Knoxville

Oh we set our weddin' day

Left her standin' at the alter with a baby on the way

And when you leave that way you can never go back

A train won't run on a torn up track

Sometimes I wish I'd never roamed oh no 'cos when you leave that way you can never go home

Lord I'd love to see my mom and daddy

And what I'd give to hold that boy of mine

I'd get down on my knees and say I'm sorry if I could only go back one more time

But I killed a man in Houston when he caught me with his wife

And I told the preacher man to leave me alone when he came to read my rights

And he said Son

When you leave this way you can never come back

A soul won't roll on a torn up track

All through eternity you'll roam alone 'cos when you leave this way you can never come home

All through eternity you'll roam alone 'cos when you leave this way you can never come home
