Local politics, the general store
In the hands of just one family
Highschool Graduates with one way tickets for the greyhound to NYC
Bars are closed, streets are dead, by 10:30 everybody's gone to bed
Front doors unlocked, the walls have ears
And the nextdoor neighbour is the towns gazette
Other people's business
Rather than their own
I don't understand but I'm heading straight for this town
I might just be going back
Back to my old hometown
This is gonna be a throwback
But it will solely be my own
The nearest mall is an hours drive
A great excuse to shop online
A perfect reason, for being tardy is the tractor you got stuck behind
Log-style pancake, breakfast joints, they got the best food in town
Country songs in a lifted truck
Watching the sun going down
Other people's business
Rather than their own
I don't understand but I'm heading straight for this town
I might just be going back
Back to my old hometown
This is gonna be a throwback
But it will solely be my own
I might just be going back
Back to my old hometown
This is gonna be a throwback
But it will solely be my own
I might just be going back
Back to my old hometown
This is gonna be a throwback
But it will solely be my own
