Walking on New Grass

(Ray Pennington)



I'm like a cloud drifting from town to town

And each new love just helps me on my way

No one woman's ever gonna tie me down

When one gets too close I just back up and say.



Well, I gotta be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

Tomorrow there's no telling where I'll be

But I'll be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

The next time up the road keeps a calling me.



I'm warning you don't fall in love with me

I don't plan on a being here too long

You're just a leaf caught in a playfull breeze

I'll carry you a while then be moving on.



'Cause I gotta be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

Tomorrow there's no telling where I'll be

But I'll be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

The next time up the road keeps a calling me.

I won't take roots I never stay that long

And a bad seed just won't grow anyway

This rolling stone don't want to gather no moss

So when the grass starts to grow then I'll be on my way.



'Cause I gotta be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

Tomorrow there's no telling where I'll be

But I'll be walkin' on new grass singin' a new song

The next time up the road keeps a calling me.



The next time up the road keeps a calling me...
