Outskirts 歌词

There's so much goin' on in this town To keep me busy, I've been runnin' around Up and down all these avenues Doin' everything but thinking 'bout you As long as I stay on 'em, I'm fine The city side of those city limit signs You don't really cross my mind But soon as I get out here on the outskirts I wish I was runnin' by your house first Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south, sure Shines like gold down these old Round bail river valley backroads Way back in the holler where the grass grows God almighty, baby, we were that close To ditchin' this town and settlin' down Out here on the outskirts If I'd have had a lick of damn sense I'd be on the greener side of that fence Little starter house we've finally outgrown Twelve-hundred feet we're 'bout to add on Smilin' out there watchin' them Big ol' yellow buckets 'bout to break ground While you're shootin' all my baby names down (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh) But soon as I get out here on the outskirts I wish I was runnin' by your house first Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south, sure Shines like gold down these old Round bail river valley backroads Way back in the holler where the grass grows God almighty, baby, we were that close To ditchin' this town and settlin' down Out here on the outskirts I'm over all these Saturday nights I miss the stars in your eyes We were gonna give up on the fast life Have a couple babies, raise 'em up right Take 'em to the river, get 'em baptized Back in our day, if I'd have just stayed I wouldn't be livin' in this condo Hangin' out with hailey from toronto God almighty, baby, we were that close To ditchin' uptown, puttin' roots down Out here on the outskirts
