There ain't a lot that you can do in this town.
|
Drive down to the lake and then you turn back around.
|
Go to school and 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 girl, and where's the nearest beer.
|
They don't even know that there's a town around here.
|
|
Someday I'm finally gonna let go.
|
I know there's a better way.
|
I wanna know what's over that rainbow.
|
I'm gonna get out of here someday.
|
Someday.
|
|
Now my brother went to college cause he plays football.
|
Me I never even got through High School at all.
|
I got me a 67 Chevy, she's low and sleek and black.
|
Someday I'll put her on the Interstate and never look back.
|
|
Someday I'm finally gonna let go.
|
I know there's a better way.
|
I wanna know what's over that rainbow.
|
I'm gonna get out of here some,
|
I'm gonna get out of here someday.
|
Someday, someday.
