Gather around folks, let me take you to the place I'm from
Show you where I used to trade my homework for a piece of gum Singing songs at the talent show
Kissing girls behind the rodeo
Tomorrow never came
I took you go on a bike ride, ended up a bar fight
I sucker punched stranger just to find myself in danger Remember that day at the rodeo
I was the winner of the talent show
And you came home with me that night
I'll go ahead and get a cup of coffee Get myself out of bed
I swear one day I'll leave this town But I ain't ready yet
I see the flowers growing in the back of the field I see the grass I was laying on as a kid
I can't see the colors like I did back then Everything's faded into green and red
And keeps on fading into black
I'll go ahead and get a cup of coffee Get myself out of bed
I swear one day I'll leave this town But I ain't ready yet
I swear one day I'll leave this town But I ain't ready yet
