Marty Stuart - Goin' Nowhere Fast lyrics

rate me

Written by Marty Stuart

There's just too much confusion, to get what's really going on

The truth is lying out there, and it's covered up in stone

I get a funny feeling that's been rolling 'round in me

I think it's time to tell you that it's time for me to leave

It's been fun, it has been a gas

But it's goin' nowhere fast

Somebody call my number and get me on the phone

Lately I've been talking to myself, when I had me all alone

Thinking I should start a fire and burn a bridge back into town

It must be time to go back home

'Cause I miss having me around

It's almost real, it could've been a blast

But it's goin' nowhere fast

I'm on a roll so I'll keep rolling

Gaining ground on my control

While I need someone to lean on, a tender hand to hold

As I scramble cross the beckon call of my own heart's command

I'll fade and disappear into a sea of sinking sand

Like a dark horse running from the past

I'm goin' nowhere fast

I'm a dark horse running through the past

I'm goin' nowhere fast
