I’m leavin here today

My pickup’s packed and ready

I’m all prepared to truck on down the line

Had all I can take of Mobile Alabama

Nothing you can do will change my mind

Sold my stereo and my tools down at the truck stop

Quit my job and picked up my last pay

So tell the guys in town that you’ve been foolin round with

I’ll soon be gone and you’ll be free to play

Chorus:

Don’t waste a single tear by cryin on your pillow

I’m leavin now no matter what you do

I’m not stayin here and be your fool forever

Today I’m leavin you and mobile too

There’s a pretty blue eyed girl by the Mississippi River

A little town just north of Baton Rouge

Two state lines away from Mobile Alabama

Where I made the sad mistake of lovin you

She’s a waitin there for me her heat is warm and tender

She knows how to satisfy her man

I hear the work is good out there in Louisiana

So comin back to you ain’t in my plans

Chorus:

Don’t waste a single tear…

Repeat last line…today I’m leavin you and mobile too.
