I'm on my way somewhere
When Louisville was eight more miles away my old heart sung a song Well I thought I'd hug kiss my gal before so very long But when I got to Louisville I found she wasn't true So I'll tell you all about it now that's why I feel so blue When I got to Louisville my gal she wasnt there They sais she'd gone with someone else it was more than I could dear So I'm heading out of this old town, where to I don't much care Louisville is eight miles back and I'm on my way somewhere I always dreamed of some sweet day when she could be my wife And we would settle down somewhere and lead a happy life But now I know just how things are and how they'd always be So I know now Louisville just ain't the place for me Right now I'm traveling down this road to get her off my mind The thind I want to do is leave old Louisville behind Who knows I may find fappiness and one who fills the bill A girl htat's true and not like her that lives in Louisville * Refrain
