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