VERSE
I can?t make you listen to me
But I must try to make you see
That man of yours is gonna mess up your mind
I don?t know him but I know his kind
CHORUS
You can?t walk on a tumbling rock
You can?t stand on shifting sands
You can?t fly on a windy sky
You just can?t rely on a restless man
He?s a restless man
VERSE 2
He?s gonna grab his coat and leave in the dark
Without a goodbye note, just a question mark
He might leave his watch, he might leave his hat
But he won?t be back, I can tell you that
CHORUS
You just can?t depend on a restless man
He?s a restless man
VERSE 3
Have you seen his resume?
It?s full of places he didn?t stay
Much longer than a paycheck or two
Don?t you know he?s just passing through?
CHORUS
There?s no making plans with a restless man
He?s a restless man
VERSE 4
Well, I saw him down at the Frying Pan
With that waitress Mary Ann
Though I hate to say it, she was on his lap
And they were looking together at a highway map
CHORUS
You can?t claim the hand of a restless man
He?s a restless man
