Get Out Of This Town
drivin around
this one horse town
that i use to love
gets a little tough
these days
cuz every where i go
i see your face
who ever thought someone like me
would be ready to pack it on up
and leave
oh
i just gotta get out of this town
before your memory tares me down
no matter where i go
or what i do
i cant out run it
cuz you're on every street
and every corner
i see you in every girl i meet
i should be over it by now
i guess i just gotta get out of this town
i drive up to the dam to think
just like i use to do as a kid
but all i see
is you there with me
and i'm holding you had
oh i swear these memories
are gonna be the death of me man
i just gotta get out of this town
before your memory tares me down
no matter where i go
or what i do
i cant out run it
cuz you're on every street
and every corner
i see you in every girl i meet
i should be over it by now
i guess i just gotta get out of this town
i go out to the river to throw a few stones
what do you know i'm not alone
i see your face in the reflection of the trickling water
and it kills me inside
oh theres no where to hide
i just gotta get out of this town
before your memory tares me down
no matter where i go
or what i do
i cant out run it
cuz you're on every street
and every corner
i see you in every girl i meet
i should be over it by now
i guess i just gotta get out of this town
