Lyrics Blink You'll Miss It - Mike Ryan

Blink You'll Miss It

I’m from Could Be Anywhere, America
Population four hundred and three
Just keep a' goin' 'til you see that pump jack
Take a left where Gunny’s feed store used to be
Grandpa sent me in to get his liquor
'Cause the truck would die if you let off of the clutch
Back then I didn’t know that towns got bigger
'Cause back then I didn’t worry about that much
Ridin' shotgun meant you gotta get the gate
Daddy worked hard every day 'cept when it rained
«'Cause I said so, that’s why» is all Mama had to say
We all wave at folks when they pass through, Blink You’ll Miss It, U.S.A
My cousins all came over on Thanksgiving
We’d get hollered at to go outside and play
Past the cottonwood was a touchdown
Uncle Charlie’s truck was out of bounds
Two-hand-touch, but we tackled anyway
When it gets dark enough nothin’s open in town
We all loaded up and drove around
Ridin' shotgun meant you gotta get the gate
Daddy worked hard every day 'cept when it rained
«'Cause I said so, that’s why» is all MAma had to say
We all wave at folks when they pass through, Blink You’ll Miss It, U. S
Ain’t much to do, ain’t much to look at
Ain’t much at all that I would change
Yeah we still wave at folks when they drive pass
Cuss the ones that drive too fast
In Blink You’ll Miss It, U.S.A
I’m from Could Be Anywhere, America
