"Can't Stand Still" lyrics

Well, women ain't supposed to ramble
Women ain't supposed to paint
Why would I wanna stay home all night
Washin' dishes in the kitchen sink?

And it's been a lowdown time
It's been an uphill climb
And now I can't stand still
No, I never will

But my papa says I gotta get married
Mama told me, "Settle down,"
But I got me a ticket on a big jet plane
I'm gonna fly straight out of town

And, honey, now don't you know?
I still got a long way to go
Now I can't stand still
No, I never will

And when I get to the big old city
Ain't gonna be no in between
'Cause I swear someday I'm gonna make some cash
Get my picture in a magazine

And it's been a lowdown time
It's been an uphill climb
And now I can't stand still
No, I never will
Hoo

I got to tell my little sister
Not to do the way I do
'Cause the pills won't help take away the pain
Like the whiskey and the cocaine do

And it's been a lowdown time
It's been an uphill climb
And now I can't stand still
No, I never will

I'm gonna get me a big white stallion
Find me a traveling man
Gonna buy him some boots and a three-piece suit
And then he'll take me to the promised land

And it's been a lowdown time
It's been an uphill climb
And now I can't stand still
No, I never will
I said I can't stand still, no
No, I never will
