Just Passin' Thru

(album: Half A Boy And Half A Man - 1999)

She asked me how long I'd be staying in town,
And did I have plans this time for sticking around
She said it'd be so nice if I
Could spend a week or two
But was I gonna stay
Or was I just passing thru

Well I'm just passing thru this time
I won't be staying here long
Just like an outlaw in a Willie Nelson song
So I guess I'll be rolling on
Say goodbye to you
Sorry I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru

It's hard to figure out just why
I can't keep still
But somethin's always calling me
From over the hill
So I guess I'll be rolling on
Adios to you
Sorry I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru

Yes I'm just passing thru this time
I won't be staying here long
Just like an outlaw in a Willie Nelson song
So I guess I'll be rolling on
Bye-bye to you
Honey I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru

Well, it's hard to figure out just why
That I've got to be free
Staying in just one place
Don't appeal to me
So I guess I'll be rolling on
Bye-bye to you
Sorry I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru

Well I'm just passing thru this time
I won't be staying here long
Just like an outlaw in a Willie Nelson song
I'd like to stick around awhile
And have some fun with you
Sorry I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru
Honey, I can't stay
You know I'm just passing thru
Yep!
