East Of The Massanutten

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Just south of Leesburg Where Blue fought with Reb Some ran 'til their knees hurt 'Til they couldn't feel their legs Tell me, why am I still runnin' now? For freedom, I guess To my forty acres, runnin' full speed ahead Out West to the desert, where sun shines forever Or up north to the city, make a few bad investments I'm not one for gamblin', but I'll take my chances It's 'bout time for a blessing, I won't settle for less [Chorus] 'Cause I know that out there's A land land full of dreams With milk, gold and honey Just waitin' for me So I'll pack mе a little duffle Skip the goodbyеs and leave 'Cause East of the Massanutten There's nothin' for me [Verse 2] Met a believer Had all kinds of plans Was drunk on ambition No cards in his hands But you can't beat the dealer So grab what you can If you wind up with nothin' Than you're better off dead [Chorus] 'Cause I know that out there's A land land full of dreams With milk, gold and honey Just waitin' for me So I'll pack me a little duffle Skip the goodbyes and leave 'Cause East of the Massanutten There's nothin' for me There's nothin' for me [Bridge] I don't know where I'm headin' now I'll do anything except turn around I ain't seen an exit for miles So I'll stop at this motel for now [Chorus] 'Cause I know that out there's A land land full of dreams With milk, gold and honey Just waitin' for me So I'll pack me a little duffle Skip the goodbyes and leave 'Cause East of the Massanutten There's nothin' for me
