Trying To Stop You Leaving

Got a guitarGot a guitar on my backAnd I'm standin' on this lonesome railroad trackTrain's a comin'It'll be here 'fore too longBut I don't think I can stop it with a songGirl that's the kind of way I'm feelin'Tryin' to stop your leavin'Got a pebbleGot a pebble in my handAnd I toss it out into the middle of the Rio GrandeBut the river keeps runnin'Don't even know that I'm aroundI could throw a million more and not slow it downGirl that's kind of what I'm feelin'Tryin' to stop your leavin'There's nothin' that I wouldn't tryIf I thought it would change your mindBut you don't love meNo you don't love me anymoreAnd I know as soon as you walk out that doorTrain's a comin', river's runnin'Train's a comin', river's runnin'Pain's a comin', tears are runnin'Yeah that's kind of the way I'm feelin'Knowin' I couldn't stop your leavin'
