I followed you to Texas
I followed you to Utah
We didn't find it there
So we moved on
I followed you to Alabam
Things looked good
in Birmingham
We didn't find it there
So we moved on
I know you're
tired of followin'
My elusive dreams
and schemes
For they're only fleetin' things
My elusive dreams
I had your
child in Memphis
You heard of work in Nashville
We didn't find it there
So we moved on
To a small farm in Nebraska
To a gold mine in Alaska
We didn't find it there
So we moved on
And now we've left Alaska
Because there was
no gold mine
But this time
Only two of us moves on
Now all we have is each other
And a little memory to cling to
And still you won't let me
go on alone
I know you're
tired of followin'
My elusive dreams
and schemes
For they're only fleetin' things
My elusive dreams
For they're only fleetin' things
My elusive dreams
