Well it's been so long |
|
I swore I'd never come back |
|
To this sleepy little one horse dot on the map |
|
But the roots run deep |
|
In this rocky red ground |
|
And I could feel that pull, every road I went down |
|
Growing up around here in this taillight town |
|
I spent seventeen years tryin' to find a way out |
|
Took a whole lot of miles to know what I know now |
|
I'm kind of proud of growing up around here |
|
Well I kissed my first girl |
|
Behind that Texaco sign |
|
I drank my first cold beer by that river side |
|
I played a little football |
|
Got a letter on my jacket |
|
I bet it's still in that box, up there in my Mom's attic |
|
Growing up around here in this taillight town |
|
I spent seventeen years tryin' to find a way out |
|
Took a whole lot of miles to know what I know now |
|
I'm kind of proud of growing up around here |
|
Yeah I know someday |
|
No matter how far I roam |
|
Oh I'll end up back this way |
|
And I'll call this place home |
|
Yeah there's no place like home |
|
Growing up around here in this taillight town |
|
I spent seventeen years tryin' to find a way out |
|
Took a whole lot of miles to know what I know now |
|
Growing up around here in this taillight town |
|
I spent seventeen years tryin' to find a way out |
|
Took a whole lot of miles to know what I know now |
|
I'm kind of proud of growing up around here |
|
Yeah I'm proud |
|
Of growing up around here |
