Robert Earl Keen - Laughing River lyrics

I'm goin' away 'cause I gotta busted heart I'm leavin' today if this ol' TravelAll will start I recken where I'm goin', might need me different clothes Way up in Michigan where the Laughing River flows Twenty years in the minor leagues, ain't no place I didn't go Well I gotta few hits but I never made the show I could hang on for a few years doin' what I've done before Wanna let the Laughing River flow right outside my door My cousin Ray, he said he's got a job for me Where the houses are still cheap, said he knows this nice lady He said she even saw me play once, said she smiles at my name Well upon the Laughing River, might be a whole new game (Banjo/Harmonica) So goodbye to the bus, goodbye to payin' dues Goodbye to the cheers and goodbye to the boos I'm trading in this old bat for a fishing pole Gonna let the Laughing River flow right into my soul So I'm goin' away 'cause I gotta busted heart I'm leavin' today if this ol' TravelAll will start I recken where I'm headed, might need me different clothes Way up in Michigan where the Laughing River flows Way up in Michigan where the Laughing River flows
