No Town

[Verse 1]
There ain’t no stoplight
In the town where I grew up
Everyone knows everything
Everyone knows too much
You can watch the sunset
Or football on Friday nights
Till you waste away on an oil rig
For the rest of your life

[Chorus]
It ain’t a town built for staying
But there ain’t nowhere to run
It’s like i’m trapped inside the waiting
With my back against the wall
There ain’t no place like home
This home town ain’t no town at all

[Verse 2]
All my best friends talk about their plans
How they don’t want their daddy’s lives
Don’t want their daddy’s hands
I’m chasing something they ain’t never seen
Strumming out these stories
Hiding in a six string

[Chorus]
It ain’t a town built for staying
But there ain’t nowhere to run
It’s like i’m trapped inside the waiting
With my back against the wall
There ain’t no place like home
This home town ain’t no town at all

[Outro]
I wave goodbye
Until we meet again
My roots are in the red dirt
But my heart is in the wind
