TWO GAS STATIONS AND A DAIRY QUEEN
QUARTERBACKS, THE HOME COMING KING
AND EVERYBODY KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYONE

SCHOOL RIVAL””S TEN MILES AWAY
THE WHOLE COUNTY COMES TO WATCH ””EM PLAY
WE””LL WIN AGAIN THIS YEAR WHEN ITS ALL SAID AND DONE

SURE SEEMS BIG WHEN YOU””RE SMALL
YOU RIDE TO TOWN WITH YOUR GRANDPA
MAN YOU SURE OUT GROW IT FAST

BEFORE YOU KNOW YOU””RE NOT A KID
YOU REALIZE HOW SMALL IT IS
CANT WAIT UNTIL THE DAY YOU LEAVE IT IN THE PAST

CHORUS:
PACKED MY THINGS, TODAY
NOW IM ON MY WAY
AND AS THE SUN GOES DOWN
I SAY GOODBYE TO MY HOMETOWN

ITS A LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL GAME
WHERE YOU KNOW EVERBODIES NAME
THE HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART THAT GOT AWAY

LOCAL DANCE ON A SUMMER NIGHT
WHEN EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD FELT RIGHT
HOW YOU WISH THAT YOU COULD GO BACK TO THOSE DAYS

ME AND DAN USED TO RUN AROUND
WIFE AND KIDS NOW, HES SETTLED DOWN
I GUESS HIS CRAZY DAYS ARE THROUGH

CAUSE HE GREW UP BUT HE NEVER LEFT
HES GOTTA GOOD JOB WITH NO REGRETS
AND PART OF YOU WISHES YOU WERE IN HIS SHOES

REPEAT CHORUS

AS THE SUN GOES DOWN, I SAY GOODBYE TO MY HOMETOWN

CORRECTIONS WELCOME

I PULLED OUT OF A TRUCKSTOP IN BIRMINGHAM
HOUSTONS 700 MILES AWAY FROM WHERE I AM
SURE COULD USE SOME SLEEP BUT I DONT GIVE A DAMN
CAUSE I CANT WAIT TO GET BACK HOME

TRYIN TO FIND SOMETHING GOOD ON THE RADIO
SEE MY REFLECTION IN THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE DASHBOARD GLOW
80 MILES AN HOUR MAN IT SURE FEELS SLOW
WHEN YOU CANT WAIT TO GET BACK HOME

CHORUS:
ITS BEEN A LONG LONG DAY
IVE COME A LONG LONG WAY
AND IM TIRED OF BEIN ALONE
IM GONNA DRIVE ALL NIGHT
BUT THATS ALRIGHT
CAUSE I CANT WAIT TO GET BACK HOME

MAKE MY LIVIN SINGIN SONGS WITH MY GUITAR
EVERY NIGHT A DIFFERENT TOWN IN ANOTHER BAR
BABY IVE BEEN EVERYWHERE BUT WHERE YOU ARE
AND I CANT WAIT TO GET BACK HOME

REPEAT CHORUS

BILLBOARDS AND THE BUSES AND THE TRUCKS PASS BY
UP AHEADS ANOTHER TOWN
ILL BE WITH YOU IN THE MORNIN LIGHT
LOVE YOU TIL THE SUN GOES DOWN

THROUGH THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE HIGHWAY I CAN SEE YOUR SMILE
IM GETTING CLOSER WITH EVERY MILE
IM GONNA HOLD YOU IN A LITTLE WHILE
AND I CANT WAIT TO GET BACK HOME

REPEAT CHORUS X 2
