Goin' Nowhere Fast

Goin' Nowhere Fast Lyrics

Written by Marty Stuart

There's just too much confusion, to get what's really going on
The truth is lying out there, and it's covered up in stone
I get a funny feeling that's been rolling 'round in me
I think it's time to tell you that it's time for me to leave
It's been fun, it has been a gas
But it's goin' nowhere fast
Somebody call my number and get me on the phone
Lately I've been talking to myself, when I had me all alone
Thinking I should start a fire and burn a bridge back into town
It must be time to go back home
'Cause I miss having me around
It's almost real, it could've been a blast
But it's goin' nowhere fast

I'm on a roll so I'll keep rolling
Gaining ground on my control
While I need someone to lean on, a tender hand to hold
As I scramble cross the beckon call of my own heart's command
I'll fade and disappear into a sea of sinking sand
Like a dark horse running from the past
I'm goin' nowhere fast
I'm a dark horse running through the past
I'm goin' nowhere fast
