I Ain't Going To Drag My Feet No More

Lyrics
I've been gone so long, now ain't it a pity Bending my back in this hell-hole city Turning my ear from my friends and betters Up to my neck in unread letters And unwritten laws Where I come from feeling is a crime I thought I could take you in my own good time Like a jumped-up fool, now down I climb And I ain't going to drag my feet no more I'm running to your side, gonna beat down the door I ain't going to drag my feet no more, no more Well I can't live without you but I've been trying I've got a short-set fuse and two fists of iron I did everything a man might do To stop myself from pining after you But it don't seem to matter no more Penny's in my hand, now I'm going to spin it Heads you win, don't you think for one minute That I care for this bed with nobody in it And I ain't going to drag my feet no more I'm running to your side, gonna beat down the door I ain't going to drag my feet no more, no more Biding my time is driving me senseless You worked yourself right under my defenses You got me in a grip that I can't shake All my feelings are about to break And love never rains, it pours I worked my hands 'till they couldn't spell your name I rolled and I roared 'till I couldn't see your face I leaned on the jukebox 'till I couldn't hear your voice Put my head in the sand, but that won't do it I swore I was above you, but that won't do it And I tried and I tried, but that won't do it And I ain't going to drag my feet no more I'm running to your side, gonna beat down the door I ain't going to drag my feet no more, no more I ain't going to drag my feet no more I'm running to your side, gonna beat down the door I ain't going to drag my feet no more, no more
