[Verse 1]

Well, I'm goin' to Florida

I'm goin' to Maine

No matter where I roam, everything's the same

I could sketch out a plan

I could change my name

No matter where I roam, everything's the same


[Verse 2]

I've been a lock-pick

I've been a thief

I'll lie to your face and make you believe

I'll tear through your town like a hurricane

No matter where I roam, everything's the same


[Verse 3]

I killed a rounder

I killed a priest

I stole the gold right out of their teeth

I sold my soul for fortune and fame

No matter where I roam, everything's the same


[Instrumental]


[Verse 4]

Well, I'll drink your whiskey

I'll drink your beer

By this time tomorrow, I'll be anywhere but here

I'll burn down your orchard and dance in the flame

No matter where I roam, everything's the same


[Verse 5]

It's always "goodbye"

It's always "farewell"

The day I slow down would be a cold day in hell

And I'm on the run; it's a crying shame

No matter where I roam, everything's the same


[Instrumental]


[Outro]

Well, I'm on the run; it's a crying shame

No matter where I roam, everything's the same
