Lyrics for You Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Clouds so swift and rain fallin' in Gonna see a movie called Gunga Din Pack up your money, pull up your tent, McGuinn You ain't goin' nowhere Whoo-ee, ride me high Tomorrow's the day that my bride's gonna come Whoo-ee, are we gonna fly? Down into the easy chair Genghis Khan and his brother, Don Couldn't keep on keepin' on We'll climb that bridge after it's gone After we're way past it Whoo-ee, ride me high Tomorrow's the day that my bride's gonna come Whoo-ee, are we gonna fly? Down into the easy chair, yeah Buy me some rings and a gun that sings A flute that toots and a bee that stings A sky that cries and a bird that flies A fish that walks and a dog that talks Whoo-ee, ride me high Tomorrow's the day that my bride's gonna come Whoo-ee, are we gonna fly? Down into the easy chair Whoo-ee, ride me high Tomorrow's the day that my bride's gonna come Whoo-ee, are we gonna fly? Down into the easy chair
