I was just leaving

I was just up and walking

When someone said something

It was likely my name

But I didnâ € ™t turn then

I just kept on walking

Got to my car and

I am presently driving

But darlinâ € ™ I canâ € ™t go back to Petrolia

With something I owe you

I think you already know that

I know Iâ € ™ll regret it

Not living with you

And youâ € ™ll have to sell that house and move to the city

She says no no no

Thereâ € ™s this cop in London

Heâ € ™s got it in for me

I known him since high school

He still thinks weâ € ™re nineteen

I canâ € ™t live nowhere

Where you could run into me

â € ˜Cause I think itâ € ™s likely

That youâ € ™ll make some big scene

And darlin I canâ € ™t go back to Petrolia

With something I owe you

I think you already know that

I know Iâ € ™ll regret it

Not living with you

And youâ € ™ll have to sell that house and move to the city

She says no no no

Out of all the places I could run

Lonelyâ € ™s destination number one

And Iâ € ™ll deny it all a little more

Yeah I done it but I donâ € ™t know what I did it for

Stopped at this truck stop

Right outside Woodstock

I was gonna get something

But the whole thing was closed

And then I thought I might turn back

And then I though I might call you

But I didnâ € ™t do that

I just kept going

And darlin I canâ € ™t go back to Petrolia

With something I owe you

I think you already know that

You know that I love you

I just cannot live with you

And youâ € ™ll have to sell that house and get lost in the city

She says no no no
