Where Nobody Knows My Name
written by John Hiatt

There's a town down the road
Where I ain't been before
Nobody knows my name
Or what I'm looking for

Maybe things 'll be a little bit different
'Cause they can't stay the same
I'm gonna ease on down the road
Where nobody knows my name

Gotta keep the dust a' movin'
Up around my heels
There might be a change for me
Just over that distant hill

Baby, when the past comes calling
Looking for somebody to blame
I'll be easing on down the road
Where nobody knows my name

When the burning sun surrenders
Will he still remember me
I never told her I was going
Out where the wind was blowing free

If he thinks about me tonight
I know he won't miss the pain
Cause I'll be taking it down the road
Where nobody knows my name

When the burning sun surrenders
Will he still remember me
I never told her I was going
Out where the wind is blowing free

If he thinks about me tonight
I know he won't miss the pain
I'll be taking it down the road
Where nobody knows my name

I'm gonna ease on down the road
Where nobody knows my name
