hit of the highlife

[Verse 1]
Yeah, well, I drove on up to New York City
Deep down where life was shitty, though
From Philadelph-I-A is where I'm from
Guess we're comin' for a shot at glamour
Not that I don't love where I live
In fact, I know that it's better
By the trees, but less people, though
And sometimes, a man gets lonely
And needs a hit of the high life

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Drove over to Athens, Georgia
From Nash Vegas, USA
So much Music City, but sometimes I think
Just a bunch of cowboys on scooters
So I came to get these vocals down
Behind the mic, it's nights in Green Athens
But it ain't no cowboy town
Not much has changed, but also a whole lot
Man, this country, it sure is confusing, though
Yeah, it sure is a hella roller hole, man
Yeah
Yeah, it's true, yeah, it's true, yeah, it's true
Guess we comin' for a shot at glamour

[Bridge]
Mm, yeah, well
Yeah, yeah
Mm, so good

[Verse 3]
Yeah, drove up to New York City
Deep down, well, maybe life was shitty, though
The highway's nothing but a snake line of headlights, so
Guess we comin' for a shot at glamour
Not that I don't live where I love
But sometimes, you'll find me seesawing between in my mind
And sometimes, a man gets lonely
And needs a hit of the high life, so
