"Detroit Or Buffalo" lyrics

Jonathan Wilson & Hannah Cohen Lyrics

"Detroit Or Buffalo"
(originally by Neal Casal)

People expect you to fall
Hit that same old wall
Really they don't want to help at all
They talk behind your back today
They shake their heads and say
Well, I always knew that the boy would come to no good anyway

So better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where
You don't know
You don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking this train to the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine

I haven't been too well myself
A lot of time on the shelf
Saying that I don't need help when I do
But I'm gonna be just fine
A lot of friends a little wine
But still I wish I could see you again sometime

Better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where
I don't know
I just don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
So I'm taking this train to the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine

It's hard to open up the door
Like you've done so many times before
Sometimes you think you just can't do it anymore
So take a chance and take a train
Out into the pouring rain
When all you've got is your suitcase full of pain

Better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where
You don't know
You just don't know
God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
And I'm taking this train to the end of the line
I'm missing every mile that friend of mine
I'm missing every mile that friend of mine
