Skyway Drive-In

Shane Alexander

Skyway Drive-In by your grandma's house
Used to be all they talked about
It's been gone such a long time nowWhatever happened to the Tanglewood
Where our first dance made us feel so good
Ache in my chest when I saw you in your dressWe had small town in our bloodstreams
Wild horses in our hearts
It hurts like Hell when first love falls apartYour father gave his life to Armco Steel
He'd take his rifle out in Nelson's field
Sometimes I wonder if he's out there stillHe had small town in his bloodstream
Wild horses in his heart
Never liked me much, right from the startMaybe those winters got too goddamned cold
They'd come around make me feel so old
Just fifteen with an ancient soul
Mmm, I always wanted so much else from life
To head out west, find a west coast wife
I did my time with that small town strifeBut late at night, I still see those faces
No matter how much the time erases
I'm goin' back, I'm gonna see those places againCuz I've got small town in my bloodstream
Wild horses in my heart and no one knows you
Like those from your startIf you've got small town in your bloodstream
Then you know it's all the truth
There ain't no better way to waste your youth
