I was raised where there were fields for days
And a million fireflies to chase
The world was a simple place for a kid like me
Yea we ran fast but time moved slow
It was porch swings and (unintelligible)
Didn’t have much but now I know it was all we needed
But I grew up, moved away
Been runnin down dreams at a faster pace
But these bright lights in my face are blindin me
Some times I wish this city
Was one red light at a piggly wiggly no interstates
Just a bunch of no name two lanes
Rush hour would be a cool ten minutes
With windows down and truck tires spinning
Where speed limit signs top out at thirty-five
“Life’s a highway” so I’m told
But I wish mine was a backroad
No one asked me “how’s your momma been”
Ain’t no bonfires with all my friends
Man this concrete never ends
And I swear there’s times I
Just wanna pack my Chevrolet
Go back where everybody knows my name
But I know I gotta stay
Cause I’ve come this far but-
Some times I wish this city
Was one red light at a piggly wiggly no interstates
Just a bunch of no name two lanes
Rush hour would be a cool ten minutes
With windows down and truck tires spinning
Where speed limit signs top out at thirty-five
“Life’s a highway” so I’m told
But I wish mine was a backroad
Some times I wish this city
Was one red light and a piggly wiggly no interstates
Just a bunch of no name two lanes
Rush hour would be a cool ten minutes
With windows down and truck tires spinning
Where speed limit signs top out at thirty-five
“Life’s a highway” so I’m told
But I wish mine was a backroad
I wish my life was a backroad
Instead of these interstates
Backed up every day yea
-obviously point out any mistakes I may have made, thank you!
