Goin' Nowhere Fast Lyrics - Stuart Marty

Written by Marty Stuart 

There's just too much confusion, to get what's really going on 

The truth is lying out there, and it's covered up in stone 

I get a funny feeling that's been rolling 'round in me 

I think it's time to tell you that it's time for me to leave 

It's been fun, it has been a gas 

But it's goin' nowhere fast 

Somebody call my number and get me on the phone 

Lately I've been talking to myself, when I had me all alone 

Thinking I should start a fire and burn a bridge back into town 

It must be time to go back home 

'Cause I miss having me around 

It's almost real, it could've been a blast 

But it's goin' nowhere fast 

I'm on a roll so I'll keep rolling 

Gaining ground on my control 

While I need someone to lean on, a tender hand to hold 

As I scramble cross the beckon call of my own heart's command 

I'll fade and disappear into a sea of sinking sand 

Like a dark horse running from the past 

I'm goin' nowhere fast 

I'm a dark horse running through the past 

I'm goin' nowhere fast
