If you were here in Stark ville Towny boys would love the way you stare If you were here in Stark ville Well the local girls they wouldn't have a prayer Well I've spent a reckless night inside the wonder Of your everlasting charm Now I'm haunted by geography and the flora And the fauna of your heart At the dawning of some road worn day I call you on a whim just to say The mornin' birds are singin' But I could not do them justice So I hung up and I fell back to sleep But I'm in love with my mobility Oh, sometimes this life can be a drag Like when I notice your nobility and how my leaving It only held you back But I remember one occasion when you were drinkin' And you asked me to the coast But I was hell bent on agony back then And so I missed the boat At the dawnin' of some road worn day I call you on a whim just to say My regrets become distractions, cannot do them justice And I hung up and I fell back to sleep When I was down in Stark ville I was hidin' out inside some comfort in From a local gang of troubadours When the home coming Queen, she come ridin' in Yea, but I slipped out of my room into the rain And I went runnin' for my health I watched those headlights turn to moonlight Finally, I was runnin' by myself Now it's the dawning of some road worn day And I call you on a whim just to say The mornin' birds are singin'
