There aint 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 wheres the nearest beer And they dont even know that theres a town around here
Someday Im finally gonna let go cause I know theres a better way And I wanna know whats over that rainbow Im gonna get out of here someday
Now my brother went to college cause he played football Im still hangin round cause Im a little bit small I got me a 67 chevy, shes low and sleek and black Someday Ill put her on that interstate and never look back
