I  followed you to Texas,  I followed  you to Utah.
 We didn't find it there  so we moved on.
 I followed  you to Alabam', things  looked good in Birmingham.
 We didn't find it there  so we moved on.
 I know you're tired  of following, my  elusive dreams  and schemes.
For  they're only fleeting  things, my  elusive dreams.
I  had your child in Memphis, you  heard of work in Nashville.
 We didn't find it there,  so we moved on..
 To a small  farm in Nebraska,  to a gold  mine in Alaska.
 We couldn't find it there  so we moved on.
And  now we've left Alaska,  because  there was no gold  mine.
 But this time, only two  of us move on.
 And now  we have each other...And  a little  memory to cling  to.
 And still you won't let  me go on alone.
 I know you're tired  of following, my  elusive dreams  and schemes.
For  they're only fleeting  things...my  elusive dreams.
For  they're only fleeting  things...my  elusive dreams.
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
