Lyrics:

I'm laid around and stayed around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, summer's almost gone
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

There's a lonesome freight at 6:08, coming through the town
Coming through the town, yes, I'll be homeward-bound
There's a lonesome freight at 6:08, coming through the town
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, yes summer's almost gone
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

I've waited here for most a year, waitin' for the sun to shine
Waitin' for the sun to shine, hopin' you'd change your mind
I've waited here for most a year, waitin' for the sun to shine
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone yes, summer's almost gone long mama
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Whoa, truly wind will soon begin, I'll be on my way
Gonna home some day, yes, yes, going home to stay
Yes, truly wind will soon begin, I'll be on my way
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes I tell you
Summer's almost gone
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long, yes
Summer's almost gone long mama
Summer's almost gone, yes, I tell you
Done laid around and stayed around this old town too long
And I've gotta travel on, yeah, yeah
