"Fade Away" lyrics
I'm just gonna fade away
I can't stay here if I wanna stay sane
Guess I'm leaving down those streets of gold
All turned to rust as I grew old
She don't wanna be a back ground girl
Says she's ready for the big ol' world
Well her daddy says "Get you a C.P.A
Little Darlin, you've got bill's to pay"
But she don't wanna fade away
No she don't wanna fade away
Baby, let's get out of Abilene
'Cause we both know there ain't a goddamn thing
Left for us that we can't find
Out there between the highway lines
Yeah we're just gonna fade away
Yeah we're just gonna fade away
Come on baby, kiss your mama goodbye
Leavin' here is worth the tears she'll cry
'Cause this ain't where they're gonna dig my grave
Cause I ain't gonna fade away
Meet me out on Highway 84
Between the fillin' station and the liquor store
Pack your bags a little heavy this time
We'll go see what we can't find
I can't stay here if I wanna stay sane
Guess I'm leaving down those streets of gold
All turned to rust as I grew old
She don't wanna be a back ground girl
Says she's ready for the big ol' world
Well her daddy says "Get you a C.P.A
Little Darlin, you've got bill's to pay"
But she don't wanna fade away
No she don't wanna fade away
Baby, let's get out of Abilene
'Cause we both know there ain't a goddamn thing
Left for us that we can't find
Out there between the highway lines
Yeah we're just gonna fade away
Yeah we're just gonna fade away
Come on baby, kiss your mama goodbye
Leavin' here is worth the tears she'll cry
'Cause this ain't where they're gonna dig my grave
Cause I ain't gonna fade away
Meet me out on Highway 84
Between the fillin' station and the liquor store
Pack your bags a little heavy this time
We'll go see what we can't find
