Dirt roads and dryland farming might be the death of me
But i can't leave this world behind
Debts are not like prison where there's hope of getting free
And i can't leave this world behind

I've been from here to lawrence kansas
Trying to leave my state of mind
Trying to leave this awful sadness
But i can't leave this world behind

South of delia there's a patch out back by the willow trees
And i can't leave this world behind
It's a fenced in piece of nothing where i hear voices on my knees
And i can't leave this world behind

Some prophecies are self-fulfilling
But i've had to work for all of mine
Better times will come to me god willing
Cause i can't leave this world behind

This world must be frightening everybody's on the run
And i can't leave this world behind
And my house is a wooden one and its built on a wooden one
Seems i can't leave this world behind

Preacher says when the master calls us
He's gonna give us wings to fly
But my wings are made of hay and corn husks
So i can't leave this world behind
