| Put the hammer down, just ignore that county line
|
| I’ve had enough of this old town, we’re leavin' it behind
|
| Folks have dropped their friendly act and now they’re gettin' cold
|
| And this old place ain’t home it’s just a stop in the road
|
| Don’t worry about our clothes and things, we’re leavin' them behind
|
| They’ll be right here when we get back if I should change my mind
|
| But that’s not likely 'cause this way of life is gettin' old
|
| This old place ain’t home, it’s just a stop in the road
|
| Just a stop in the road, not where you’re gonna say is born and raised
|
| Just a stop in the road, too soon you get to feelin' out of place
|
| You never see it but you feel it smirkin' every grin
|
| Too soon you get the feelin' you’re on the outside lookin' in
|
| I wouldn’t want to be caught here and find I’m gettin' old
|
| This old place ain’t home, it’s just a stop in the road
|
| Don’t worry where we’re goin', just drive till you feel right
|
| We don’t need a roadmap to get us out of sight
|
| We’ll start lookin' for a place where we can settle down
|
| But right now, do us a favor, get us out of town
|
| Drive this old machine like it’s been entered in a race
|
| Don’t slow it down until you see a smile across my face
|
| I could tell we didn’t belong here without havin' to be told
|
| This old place ain’t home, it’s just a stop in the road
|
| Just a stop in the road, not where you’re gonna say is born and raised
|
| Just a stop in the road, too soon you get to feelin' out of place
|
| You never see it but you feel it smirkin' every grin
|
| Too soon you get the feelin' you’re on the outside lookin' in
|
| I wouldn’t want to be caught here and find I’m gettin' old
|
| This old place ain’t home, it’s just a stop in the road |
