|
It's a middle of nowhere, nobody comes here town |
|
You're either born and raised and you stay or you turn right around |
|
Pulled on, court house, stop light blinking |
|
Four wheels, corn fields, I know what you're thinking |
|
Who'd wanna live in this place |
|
Who'd wanna suffer the fate |
|
Of a life spent pulling a plow through the dirt |
|
Who'd wanna put down roots in a blue collar suit |
|
We do, and a few of us know what it's worth |
|
A little buckshot dot on a map it might be |
|
But it's the world to me |
|
I know these hollers and hills and fields down to every square inch |
|
I know every name sprayed in Dupont paint on that bridge |
|
Had my first kiss, learned to shift gears on these back roads |
|
All that and all of this makes me one of those |
|
Who'd wanna live in this place |
|
Who'd wanna suffer the fate |
|
Of a life spent pulling a plow through the dirt |
|
Who'd wanna put down roots in a blue collar suit |
|
We do, and a few of us know what it's worth |
|
A little buckshot dot on a map it might be |
|
Oh, but it's the world to me |
|
It's those Friday night games |
|
Barry's Tavern on Main |
|
Where we got a cold beer after a hard day's work |
|
It's who we are through and through |
|
From our hats to our boots |
|
It's the truth, and we all know what it's worth |
|
A little buckshot dot on a map it might be |
|
But it's the world to me |
|
Oh, the world to me |
