No Truck

(album: Standards - 2013)

I don't mind the flowers and the trees
I don't mind the birds and I don't mind the bees
I don't mind the lovers and the love they make
For I'm leaving here today
Do I know where I'm going to?
No I don't know where
But it's plain for all to see
She won't have no truck with me

I have seen the high road and the low
I found no satisfaction
I have seen the mountains sweep down to the sea
I heard the music
It's not moving me
And I will find no peace I fear
No peace I fear
For as far as I can see
She won't have no truck with me

And from this motel yonder
I may take me to a'wandering
Beneath the blinking neon signs
I will lay me down and see what's mine

And I won't mind the flowers and the trees
I won't mind the birds and I won't miss the bees
I won't mind the lovers and the love they make
For I'm leaving here today
