C/GDirt roads and dry land farming
Might C/Gbe the death of me
But I Fcan't leave this world behiC/Gnd
And my C/Gdebts are not like prison
Were there's C/Ghope of getting free
Seems I Fcan't leave this world behinC/Gd

GI've been from here to Lawrence, KFansas
GTrying to leave my state of mFind
GTrying to leave this awful Fsadness
But I Fcan't leave this world beiC/Gnd

[Verse 2]
South of C/GDeliah there's a patch
Out C/Gback by the willow trees
Where I Fcan't leave this world behinC/Gd
And it's aC/G fenced in piece of nothing
I C/Ghear voices on my knees
And I Fcan't leave this world behC/Gind
[Chorus 2]

GBut I've had to work for all of Fmine
GBetter times will come to me, God Fwilling
'Cause I Fcan't leave this world beinC/Gd
