Population 4000 Minus 1
|
(Chris Farren/Kevin Sharp)
|
|
I'm proud of my history, proud of my home
|
But there comes a time in a young boy's life
|
When he feels he's got to roam
|
Daddy says I'm crazy, Mama thinks I'm naive
|
But if I don't do it now then I'll never leave
|
|
멌ause I've driven every back road in this part of the state
|
Ain't a girl in my graduation class that I didn't date
|
Tried everything on the menu down at Fiddler's Bar & Grill
|
I got a taste for something this town will never fill
|
|
There's a great big world out there for me to see
|
I might sail a boat to China, chase dreams in Tennessee
|
Right now the motor's running, just a few things I gotta do
|
Tell my friends goodbye
|
Drive these streets for one last time
|
Change that city limit sign
|
To "Population 4000 Minus 1"
|
|
Gonna see the bright lights, gonna make my mark
|
So many things I've got to do I don't know where to starts
|
Play cards in Vegas, walk the beach at Malibu
|
Learn a few things that I never knew
|
|
There's a great big world out there for me to see
|
Might play for the ?9ers, Mardi Gras in New Orleans
|
Right now the motor's running, just a few things I gotta do
|
Tell my friends goodbye
|
Drive these streets for one last time
|
Change that city limit sign
|
To "Population 4000 Minus 1"
|
|
Now I'm stuck in New York City, staring at these walls
|
Thinking how the grass out here ain't that green at all
|
Ain't that green at all
|
|
There's a great big world out there for me to see
|
I might wed a farmers daughter and raise a family
|
Right now the clock is ticking, just a few things I gotta do
|
Tell my friends goodbye
|
Ride that subway one last time
|
Change that city limit sign
|
To "Population 12 Million Minus 1"
|
To "Population 12 Million Minus 1"
|
Coming home, coming home
