She Ain't Goin' Nowhere Lyrics - Nanci Griffith

(Guy Clark) 

She was standin' on the gone side of leavin' 

She found her thumb and stuck it in the breeze 

She'll take anything that's goin' close to somewhere else 

She can lay it down and live it as she please 

Chorus 

She ain't goin' nowhere 

She's just leavin' 

She ain't goin' nowhere 

Se can't breathe in 

She ain't goin' home and that's for sure 

She's not sittin' down and crying on her suitcase 

She has no second thoughts by the road 

She's got feelings that need some repairin' 

And she did not give a damn that it showed 

Chorus 

The wind had a way with her hair 

And the blues had a way with her smile 

And she had a way of her own 

Like prisoners have a way with a file 

Chorus (Twice) 

She ain't goin' home that's for sure
