[Verse 1]
I feel it coming like a highball train
Barin' down on the end of the line
I see the black clouds following me
Like they're tied to the hands of time
[Chorus]
I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
[Verse 2]
I wish I had another day or two
But I don't have time to kill
You'll probably never see my face again
Once I make it across the hill, hey
[Chorus]
I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I feel it coming like a highball train
Barin' down on the end of the line
I see the black clouds following me
Like they're tied to the hands of time
[Chorus]
I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
[Verse 2]
I wish I had another day or two
But I don't have time to kill
You'll probably never see my face again
Once I make it across the hill, hey
[Chorus]
I'm feeling meaner than an old bobcat
I got the hammer down and won't look back
My mind is headed down a one-way track
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
I'm leaving Lonesome Flats
