Gonna Pack My Bags (And My Cowboy Boots)

I left my friends behind to find the promised land
Why did it take so long to find out who I am?
Was I a fool to think I’d make it?
This world is cruel and complicated

Gonna pack my bags and my cowboy boots
And everything I own
Gonna leave the city to the men in suits
Tonight I’m coming home

A thousand miles away I stare into the sky
Why did I ever kiss the girl I love goodbye?
I’ve been around, it’s over rated
One thing I’ve found is I can’t fake it

Gonna pack my bags and my cowboy boots
And everything I own
Gonna leave the city to the men in suits
Tonight I’m coming home

The people pass you by without a friendly smile
Just look around a while but don’t look in their eyes

Gonna pack my bags and my cowboy boots
And everything I own
Gonna leave the city to the men in suits
Tonight I’m coming home

This city burns and leaves you frozen     
You wait your turn until you’re chosen

Gonna pack my bags and my cowboy boots
And everything I own
Gonna leave the city to the men in suits
Tonight I’m coming home
