My New Career

[Verse 1]
I never wanted to be on my own
I could be wrong, but
I just slipped away from home
And now I'm gone
Well, way down south
They're having minor ups and downs
But they're moving on ahead
In leaps and bounds

[Chorus]
Why, boy
They're playing our song
Outside where no one can hear
Why, boy
They're playing our song
At the start of my new career

[Verse 2]
Well, it's a different walk of life
That I've come to know
Because at every port of call
Comes a time to go
Well, they say down south
The sun won't set on my home town
It's just driving in this heat
That gets me down

[Chorus]
Why, boy
They're playing our song
Outside where no one can hear
Why, boy
They're playing our song
At the start of my new career
My new career

[Bridge]
I could never hurt anyone
Least of all you

[Chorus]
Why, boy
They're playing our song
Outside where no one can hear
Why, boy
They're playing our song
At the start of my new career
My new career
