That Place on Your Sweatshirt (That's Where I'm From)

Don't switch the story around
Don't try to say that it's all the same
Cause even if you're leaving town
You know I'll pester you 'til you're boarding the plane
Saw her sitting on the rock wall
Reading some dimestore romance book
What's your name?
Can I hang with you?
Take me to your private neighborhood
We stood where the bombs went off
And snapped a smiling picture
She wanted 1950's Doo-Wop love
And a nice boy that could fix her
Handed her a pile of pebble
To chuck at my first floor window
If you want to sneak out to the town dock anytime
Baby go ahead and let me know
Thought I would feel older by now
With one final summer to steal
She didn't think too much of age
Just wanted something to make her feel
That place on your sweatshirt
That's where I'm from
Don't switch the story around
Don't try to say that it's all the same
Cause even if you leave this town
You know I'll howl for you like a wolf in pain
