Turn Around Town

Mile back off the interstate
Minute past the stop and go
There's a place just off the map
Across the tracks that nobody knows

Except the locals and lost
And the crooked county cops
Most don't make it past gettin gas
And gettin back on the road

I love and hate this place
Some things never change
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
And the sweet sound
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
The distant highway hummin'
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
Of this ole turn around town

Used race the two lane
From the exit to the end of the line
Slowing by the coffee shop where the cops hang out at night
Oh i remember 18, seemed like every other night
I made it to the edge of town, turned around too many times

I love and hate this place
Some things never change
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
And the sweet sound
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
The distant highway hummin'
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
Of this ole turn around town

I love and hate this place
Some things never change
The dinner bell, the bible and the belt
And the sweet sound
Of the engine pistons gunnin'
The distant highway hummin'
Like it did, when we said we'd make it out
Of this ole turn around town
