Illinois

Caught the early morning train
One way ticket calling west
Not too sure about myself but it must be for the best
No return to Illinois
Leaving now I'm sure is right
Got to do what I can, try to make myself a man
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Write her soon to tell her, I'm ok
Get myself a little job
Send her money every week
I'll find friends make ends meet before long I'll find my feet
Caught the early morning train
One way ticket calling west
Not too sure about myself but it must be for the best
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Write her soon to tell her, I'm ok
It's too late to change my mind
Illinois is miles behind
Too late now to go back home
Sunshine soon I'll telephone
No return to Illinois
Should I try to say goodbye
It's too late to change my mind
