"Where you going to, brother?" That I just couldn't say
Wherever my thumb will lead me, sir, yes, I think I'll go that way

"How long ago since you've slept and eaten?" Well, that I just couldn't say
There's a place up the road, a mile or so, well, I think I'll go that way

Away, away, away, away
I don't know where I'm going to
But I think I'll go that way

"I'll get you a job in the city, son, a job with regular pay."
I don't want a job in the city, sir, but I think I'll go that way

"I'll get you a house in the city, son, a place where you can stay."
Well, I don't want a house in the city, sir, but I'll probably go that way

Away, away, away, away
I don't know where I'm going to
But I think I'll go that way

"Do you think you really loved her?" Well, that I just couldn't say
"Does she know where she can find you, son?" I think I'll go that way

"And do you think you really loved her?" Well, that I just couldn't say
"Does she know where she can find you, son?" I think I'll go that way
Away, away, away, away
I don't know where I'm going to
But I think I'll go that way

Away, away, away, away
I don't know where I'm going to
But I think I'll go that way
