Southbound (Live)

The boom-time, it is over

A ghost-town is all that's here

The gold-rush, it is over

And depression days draw near

So tonight, after sundown

I'm gonna pack my case

Without a word, without a sound

Disappear without a trace

Oh, I'm going southbound

Oh, I'm going southbound

Driftin' like a drover

Chasin' my career

From the ships docked in the harbour

New horizons will appear

Tumbling with the tumbleweed

Down the open road

I'll be takin' just what I need

Before my head explodes

Oh, I'm going southbound

Oh, I'm going southbound

Southbound

Oh, I'm going southbound

Oh, I'm going southbound

Hey, you're not getting any younger

The Wild West has already been won

Northern nights are growing colder

And the old Eastern ways are gone

So tonight, after sundown

I'm gonna pack my case

Without a word, without a sound

Disappear without a trace

Oh, I'm going southbound

Oh, I'm going southbound

New horizons will appear

Oh, I'm going south from here

Without a word, without a sound

I've got the leave this ghost-town

Woh, oh, let's go down to Rio

I've got to go

Oh, you know

I'm southbound

Southbound
