Round and round

Round and round the town she goes when she'll stop nobody knows
Down and down my spirits go while around the town she goes

What tempted her to ever leave these arms of mine
The arms she used to love to hold her tight
Was devotion just too weak to make her toe the line
And temptation too strong to do what's right

Round and round the town she goes...

[ trumpet ]
I tried my best to give her all that I could give
The things I've thought she wanted out of life
But she chose to live the kind of life I couldn't live
And I don't want that kind of woman for a wife

Round and round the town she goes...
Round and round the town she goes...
