[Chorus]
I'm gonna head on up to the old Ferguson Road
Stand beneath the trees and see how tall I am
Yes, I'm gonna wade in a cold, rocky stream
So I will be sure not to give a damn

[Verse 1]
No one ever loses anybody
But sometimes it's so hard to get along
I don't want to hang on to anybody
So before you say you're leaving, I'll be gone

[Chorus]
Yes, I'm gonna head on up to old Ferguson Road
Find myself a spot where the sun shines through
I'll throw some old mattress in the back of my bus
And get a good head start on forgetting you

[Verse 2]
You know I've never known anybody
Who could ever make me feel this way
Ah, but no one gets to own anybody
You see, I have good reason when I say

[Chorus]
I'm gonna head on up to the old Ferguson Road
Stand beneath the trees and see how tall I am
Yes, I'm gonna wade in a cold, rocky stream
So I will be sure not to give a damn
I will be sure not to give a damn
I wanna be sure not to give a damn
