Jared Morris - Barn Door Lyrics




My daddy never went to war
But he cut his hands on glass
So we could always be together

Your daddy treated water for
The school, so they'd have class
You skipped barefoot through the heather

Do you lie awake in bed?
And cycle through your debt?
What happened to your innocence?

Will we look back on this and say
What happened to all those Sundays
After church we'd just sleep away

Anywhere but here, I'm going
And I'll tell you where, when I know it
I'm good at cussin' but I never learned nuthin'
Down at the barn door. Oh

This is my battle cry
A wolf howling at midnight
Every high school senior keeps up this fight

Born in a different small town
Moved to this one for a while
Stood still as it just passed me by

So Passions fleet and Riders Strong
Did we ever get along?
Got caught up in the maybe and the might

How useless it is to spread
A net in full view
Of the birds you're tryin'a catch tonight oh

Anywhere but here, I'm going
And I'll tell you where, when I know it
How did I get so lost? Compass broken
In a town I know so well? Oh-Oh

In just another year
We'll have the money to get out of here
We're spending it here buying time

We used to light candles for the poor
But we don't do it anymore
Someone lights one somewhere just for us

This is my battle cry
A wolf howling at midnight
Every high school senior keeps up this fight

Anywhere but here, I'm going
And I'll tell you where, when I know it
I'm good at cussin' but I never learned nuthin'
Down at the barn door. Oh

Anywhere but here, I'm going
And I'll tell you where, when I know it
How did I get so lost? Compass broken
In a town I know so well? Oh-Oh
