Stayin' Song

Lyrics

I stopped 'cause there was nothing else to do
 And I thought I'd stick around for just a while
 But I warned you like the west wind, I was only blowin' through
 And no one could ever make me change my style
 'Cause I never sung no stayin' song before
 I've done them blues and goodbye tunes a thousand times or more
 And it seems a little strange and I ain't headin' for the door
 But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long
 I never sung no stayin' song before (oh, good on ya)
 I usually leave when all the words are said (come on)
 But with you there's always more sweet things to say
 But when my mind starts a wanderin' up that windin' road ahead
 My feet don't seem to wanna walk away
 And I never sung no stayin' song before
 I've done them blues and goodbye tunes a thousand times or more
 And it seems a little strange and I ain't headin' for the door
 But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long
 I never sung no stayin' song before
 Last night I heard an old freight whistle blow
 As I was sleeping warmly in your bed
 And it told me, boy, it's time that you was packing up to go
 But I smiled and shook the leaving from my head
 And I never sung no stayin' song before
 I've done them blues and goodbye tunes a thousand times or more
 And it seems a little strange and I ain't headin' for the door
 But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long
 I never sung no stayin' song before
 I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay so long
 I never, never sung no stayin' song before (ooh, I don't think so)
 And I never, never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay so long
 I never sung no stayin' song before
 Oh, no, I never sung a stayin' song
