Settle Down


Im goin down that highway, goin to another town
Baby when I find what Im looking for, well then maybe Ill settle down

Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down
Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down

I worked my way from boston to that san francisco bay
Baby what I was looking for, I couldnt find along the way

Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down
Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down

Never been contented no matter where I roam
It aint no fun to see a settin sun when youre far away from home

Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down
Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down

Ive worked in the mills of pittsburgh, in the hills of tennessee
Baby all I want is to find a job that will set my mind at ease

Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down
Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down

Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down
Why dont you help me brother, Im a stranger in your town
Why dont you help me sister, and then maybe Ill settle down.
