Verse 1
Walk along the highway, Topeka at my back,
A wooden nickel rolling, time goes by... fast.
I know they stole my money, I told the policeman,
So I headed out to Denver, to do what I can.

Chorus 1
And I can't go back.
I can't go back.

Verse 2
Thinkin' bout that soldier, the one I'd never be,
A wooden cross He carried, and why He died for me.
See He left me with this nickel, I dug out of the sand,
Now I hand it to you neighbor, so do what you can.

Chorus 2
And you can't go back,
No, you can't go back.
