People expect you to fall
Hit that same old wall
Really they don't want to help at all
They talk behind your back today
They shake their heads and say
Well I always knew that the boy would come to no good anyway

You better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where
You don't know
You don't know, no

God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
So I'm taking this train to the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine

I haven't been too well myself
A lot of time on the shelf
Saying that I don't need help when I do
Yes I do
But you know I'm gonna be just fine
A lot of friends, a little wine
But still I wish I could see you again sometime

But I, I better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
Anybody wanna know where
I don't know
I don't know, no

God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
So I'm taking this train to the end of the line
Missing every mile that friend of mine
That friend of mine, yeah

It's hard to open up the door
LIke you've done so many times before
And sometimes you think you just can't do it anymore
So take a chance and take a train
Out into the pouring rain
When all you've got is your suitcase full of pain
And i say

You better pack up and go
To Detroit or Buffalo
And anybody wanna know where
You don't know
You don't know, no

And God knows everybody's gotta go sometime
So I'm taking this train to the end of the line
And I'm missing every mile that friend of mine
One more time
I'm missing every mile that friend of mine
All right

That friend of mine
Everybody, they got to go sometime
Oh, they got to go sometime
Sometime
