lyrics

I was resentful of this city and that kept me here. They said, "You can't be nobody 'round cornfields, Boy, so get away from there." Well, I've been to bigger cities. I've breathed that dirty air, but I keep coming back to cornfields and engines. You can't be denying where you call home. And, I could not believe the stars at midnight, the view from my front step, the simple things that I took for granted in all those years I'd wished I'd left. Well, a people living steady don't get too upset until the economy slows down and the road you go down might be the only thing you've got left to call home.
