I followed you to Texas I followed you to Utah We didn't find it there, so we moved on I followed you to Alabama Things looked good in Birmingham We didn't find it there, so we moved on I know you're tired of following My elusive dreams and schemes For they're only fleeting 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 go-old 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 following My elusive dreams and schemes For they're only fleeting things My elusive dreams For they're only fleeting things My elusive dreams
