Текст пісні
My name is Carter Kane and I'm a stranger in this town
I sleep by day and I travel come sundown
My face is plain and my eyes are clear
Behind my back when I walk these words I do hear
Go home Carter Kane, wherever that may be
Wherever it may be found, it ain't here, leave this town
Don't let the sun rise on you
The women see me coming hold the arm of their man
The cops watch me and I watch them
It don't slow me down, it's well understood you see
If I hear horses riding they'll be coming after me
Go home Carter Kane, wherever that may be
Wherever it may be found, it ain't here, leave this town
Don't let the sun rise on you
Outside by a fire I hear a gut string guitar
There's partners dancing hand in hand underneath the stars
There's a girl from Abilene she's having too good a time with me
While she held me tight by the firelight her man stood ill at ease
Go home Carter Kane, wherever that may be
Wherever it may be found, it ain't here, leave this town
Don't let the sun rise on you
I went looking for a hotel, I'm followed where I walk
A neon sign says vacancy, I go to the door and knock
No rooms to rent they've just been lent
And this is one place you can't stay
There's a pickup truck circling the
Block and they're calling out your name
Go home Carter Kane, wherever that may be
Wherever it may be found, it ain't here, leave this town
Don't let the sun rise on you
Walking the tracks out of town, maybe I'll ride the blinds
There's nothing sweeter than early morning in the pines
While the frost is cold, snakes move
Slow, and the whippoorwill on high
Sing soft and low, I ain't got no home, but in the bye and bye
Go home Carter Kane, wherever that may be
Wherever it may be found, it ain't here, leave this town
Don't let the sun rise on you
