I Won't Be Long In Your Town Lyrics - Claude King

Nobody knows where I came from 

Nobody even knows my name 

Nobody cares where I'm goin' 

Or if I'll ever pass this way again 

I guess that I was born to wander 

Never seem like I could settle down 

I'm as free as the wind when it's blowin' 

I won't be long in your town 

Hey, hey little girl, I won't marry 

I never will be that kind 

Love me now if you want to 

Then I'll be moving on down the line 

I don't wanna cause you no trouble 

The road I travel has no end 

Little girl, I don't know when I'll be leaving 

Or if I'll ever pass this way again 

Kiss me one time before I'll leave you 

Little girl, don't cry when I'm gone 

The good things in life are not many the way 

With no son, with no home 

Love me now, if you want to 

Don't ever try to tie me down 

I'm as free as the wind when it's blowin' 

I won't be long in your town 

Oh, no, I won't be long in your town
