You Ain’t Going Nowhere Lyrics By The Byrds

    clouds so swift
    rain won’t lift
    gate won’t close
    railings froze
    get your mind off wintertime
    you ain’t goin’ nowhere
    whooee ride me high
    tomorrow’s the day
    my bride’s gonna come
    oh oh are we gonna fly
    down in the easy chair

    i don’t care
    how many letters they send
    morning came and morning went
    pack up your money
    pick up your tent
    you ain’t goin’ nowhere
    whooee ride me high
    tomorrow’s the day
    my bride’s gonna come
    oh oh are we gonna fly
    down in the easy chair

    buy me a flute
    and a gun that shoots
    tailgates and substitutes
    strap yourself
    to a tree with roots
    you ain’t goin’ nowhere
    whooee ride me high
    tomorrow’s the day
    my bride’s gonna come
    oh oh are we gonna fly
    down in the easy chair

    now genghis kahn
    he could not keep
    all his kings
    supplied with sleep
    we’ll climb that hill no matter how steep
    when we get up to it
    whooee ride me high
    tomorrow’s the day
    my bride’s gonna come
    oh oh are we gonna fly
    down in the easy chair
