[Verse 1]
The road is long
The trees are orange and brown
I'm not afraid to leave this goddamn town
I've had enough
I'm gone, I won't look back
I walk awhile, along the rail road track
[Chorus]
I'm obliged to you babe, but this place you see, is trying to hold me down
I want more than you can offer (Hold me down)
I am off to anywhere but here (Hold me down)
I keep walking so nobody can hold me down
[Verse 2]
The others, beware of what they say
Take your pill, and remember to pray
I've had enough
There's too much to live down
I need to break out of this goddamn town
[Chorus]
I'm obliged to you babe, but this place you see, is trying to hold me down
I want more than you can offer (Hold me down)
I am tired of all the if's and when's (Hold me down)
I keep walking so nobody can hold me down
I need more than you can offer (Hold me down)
I am off to anywhere but here (Hold me down)
I'm still walking cause nobody can hold me down
Hold me down
[Interlude]
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Ooh
Whoa, whoa
Ooh yeah
Yeah
[Bridge]
I want more than you can offer
I am off to anywhere but here
I keep walking so nobody can hold me down
[Outro]
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down
