Petrolia

Lyrics

I was just leaving, I was just up and walking
 When someone said something
 That was likely my name
 But I didn't turn and I just kept on walking
 Got to my car and I am presently driving
 And darlin', I can't go back to Petrolia
 With something I owe you
 Something you already know
 You know I'll regret it
 Not living with you
 And you'll have to sell that house and move to the city
 She says no, no, no
 There's this cop in London
 He's got it in for me
 I've known him since high school
 He still thinks we're nineteen
 I can't live nowhere
 Where you could run into me
 'Cause I think it's likely
 That you'll make some big scene
 And darlin' I can't go back to Petrolia
 With something I owe you
 I think you already know that
 You know I'll regret it
 Not living with you
 And you'll have to sell that house and move to the city
 She says no, no, no
 Out of all the places I could run
 Lonely's destination number one
 And I'll deny it all a little more
 Yeah I done it, but I don't know what I did it for
 Stopped at this truck stop
 Right outside Woodstock
 I was gonna get something
 But the whole thing was closed
 And then I thought I might turn back
 And then I thought I might call you
 But I didn't do that
 I just kept going
 And darlin' I can't go back to Petrolia
 With something I owe you
 Something you already know
 You know that I love you
 I just cannot live with you
 And you'll have to sell that house and get lost in the city
 She says no, no, no
