[Verse 1] I quit my job on Monday Bought a ticket Tuesday night Packed my bags on Wednesday By Thursday I was gone My mother says I'm crazy My brother says I'm nuts But every time I settle down I feel like getting on the bus [Chorus] I can't sit still I can't sit still There's something telling me I never will I can't sit still I can't sit still If there's somewhere else to go You know I will [Verse 2] I had a girl in Denver She wanted me to stay I lasted almost six months Then I packed my things away She said, “What are you running from?” I said, “Nothing that I know” She said, “Then why are you leaving?” I said, “I just gotta go” [Chorus] I can't sit still I can't sit still There's something telling me I never will I can't sit still I can't sit still If there's somewhere else to go You know I will [Verse 3] I've slept in twenty bedrooms I've driven forty cars I've worked in little diners And played in little bars I've met a lot of people Some I wish I'd never met But every town I've left behind Ain't finished with me yet [Bridge] Maybe I'll settle down tomorrow Maybe I'll stay for a while Maybe I'll wake up somewhere And finally change my style But if you hear me talking About the place I'm gonna be Don't bother asking when I'm leaving I'll be gone before you see [Chorus] I can't sit still I can't sit still There's something telling me I never will I can't sit still I can't sit still If there's somewhere else to go You know I will [Final Chorus] I can't sit still I can't sit still Turn the engine over Let me feel it I can't sit still I can't sit still If there's somewhere else to go You know I will [Outro] Where are you going? I don't know When are you coming back? I don't know Where are you going? I don't know But I'm going
