There ain't a lot that you can do in this town |
|
You drive down to the lake and then you turn back around |
|
You go to school and you learn to read and write |
|
So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life |
|
I work at the fillin' station on the interstate |
|
Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates |
|
They ask me how far into memphis son, and where's the nearest beer |
|
And they don't even know that there's a town around here |
|
Someday i'm finally gonna let go |
|
'cause i know there's a better way |
|
And i wanna know what's over that rainbow |
|
I'm gonna get out of here someday |
|
Now my brother went to college cause he played football |
|
I'm still hangin' round cause i'm a little bit small |
|
I got me a 67 chevy, she's low and sleek and black |
|
Someday i'll put her on that interstate and never look back |
