There ain’t no place for me todaySure ain’t no reason for me to stayI’m tired of wasting precious timeI’m waking up to leave this timeI’m gonna quit this townStop hanging aroundI’m gonna quit this townGot my feet on the groundI’m tired of being put downI’m gonna quit this town tonightI ain’t no fool, but I ain’t proudAnd I’m going where the music’s loudAnd I’m tired of waiting, keeping inAnd going home for half past tenI’m gonna quit this townStop hanging aroundI’m gonna quit this townGot my feet on the groundI’m tired of being put downI’m gonna quit this town tonightThe work I do just bores me sickAnd how I live I just can’t pickThe place I live sure seems like jailI got no-one to post my bailI’m gonna quit this townStop hanging aroundI’m gonna quit this townGot my feet on the groundI’m tired of being put downI’m gonna quit this town tonight
