Lawrence, Ks Lyrics - Singles - Richard Shindell

Dirt roads and dryland farming might be the death of me 

But I can't leave this world behind 

My debts are not like prisons where there's hope of getting free 

And I can't leave this world behind 

I've been from here to Lawrence, Kansas 

Trying to leave my state of mind 

Trying to leave this awful sadness 

But I can't leave this world behind 

South of Delia there's a patch out back by the willow trees 

And I can't leave this world behind 

It's a fenced-in piece of nothin' where I hear voices on my knees 

And I can't leave this world behind

Some prophecies are self-fulfilling 

I've had to work for all of mine 

Better times will come to me, God-willing 

Cause I can't leave this world behind 

This world must be frightening, everybody's on the run 

And I can't leave this world behind 

My house is a wooden one and it's built on a wooden one 

Seems I can't leave this world behind
