Outskirts Of Town

歌詞

Past the fields of his dreams, all the cars drove Ninety to nothin' towards town He'd wave and he'd watch and he'd wonder Then the dust would all settle back down Well, ain't nothin' out there but an old drive-in screen Where Elizabeth Taylor was queen And like the rest, she quit comin' around To the outskirts of town They say there's so much out there for you Maybe he never will know The buses, they load up the dreamers But leavin' was too far to go Washed in the blood and surrounded By the land and the love he had known Now he'll plant his dreams in the ground On the outskirts of town On the outskirts of town, he's livin' a dream Where they weather their storms Praying down on their knees And they hold to each other 'Cause they know what they found On the outskirts of town He looks past the fields at the sunrise Watchin' the stars as they fade He sits on the hood of his pick-up Thinkin' that he's got it made Because the prettiest girl that he's ever seen Lives up the road just a piece And they're talkin' about settling down On the outskirts of town On the outskirts of town, he's livin' a dream Where they weather their storms Praying down on their knees And they hold to each other 'Cause they know what they found On the outskirts of town On the outskirts of town On the outskirts of town
