Ain't Never Goin' Back

Come out of a fireball

Notes burning and the letters scrawled

I ain't ever goin' back no more

Bare light blub and a hotplate

Was there that I finally met my fate

And I ain't ever goin' back no more

She danced the room and she made it fine

I sang a song about a crooked line

And I ain't ever goin' back no more

She's my first love and she's my last

Don't ask me how it ever came to pass

'Cause I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't going back no more

Wouldn't even try to find that door

And I ain't ever goin' back no more

I don't care what the past has in store

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't ever goin' back no more

A pint of gin and a long bus trip

Somebody said you just get over it

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I see her face at every shitty bar

I have to play to pay for this guitar

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I'm singing every song for her tonight

So bartender would you hit the lights

'Cause I ain't ever goin' back no more

A little something to remember me

It's been so long Lord she musn't see

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't ever goin' back

I ain't goin' back no more

Wouldn't even try to find that door

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I don't care what the past has in store

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't ever goin' back no more

Dust settles in a darkened room

Whiskey steals away the sense of doom

I ain't ever goin' back no more

We made love and we made hate

Never could seem to get it straight

I ain't ever goin' back no more baby

You're branded on my soul and in my mind

I keep running up and down this old fence line

I ain't ever goin' back no more

Only one thing in my life is true

Honey I will remember you

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't ever goin' back no more

Wouldn't even try to find that door

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I don't care what the past has in store

I ain't ever goin' back no more

I ain't ever goin' back no more
