"The Leavin' Kind" lyrics

I wrote my name on ten thousand trains
That took me far away from any kind of pain
I medicated my wounded heart
With all the sins of the world
Now here I am next to you

I'm not a runaway, always tried to stay
But there's somethin' out there that won't keep me from hurtin' you

My daddy rode off to Vietnam with a machine gun that he knew
He never could bring himself to use
His daddy left behind twenty five years before
A dark haired love to fight a war that'll change his life forever more

And all these songs we sing won't get us anywhere
Just like the wars we wage against each other everyday
I'm not a runaway, but I just have to say
I am the one who sold the world for the price of freedom
And the debt of the leavin' kind
The leavin' kind

We all go it alone

I'm not a runaway, but I just have to say
I am the one who sold the world for the price of freedom
And the debt of the leavin' kind
The leavin' kind
