Why I Left This Town
Friday night back home for the weekend
Crossed that county line called up a couple friends
We hit that corner bar the only spot in town
Drinking, laughing and tossing them old stories round
Like she knew she walked in right on time
To remind me why I left it all behind
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah, that's why I left this town
Can't turn on that local country station
She's right there in every song they're playing
All the used be's are driving me insane
Gonna cuss that comeback sign when I leave this place
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah, that's why I left this town
The longer I stay
The more it's clear
Why I left this town
Why I left this town
It ain't home sweet home
If she's still here
That's why I left this town
That's why I left this town
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah that's why I left this town
Same sign, same roads
Every winding curve
There's not an inch of this ground that don't take me back to her
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
That's why I left this town
Crossed that county line called up a couple friends
We hit that corner bar the only spot in town
Drinking, laughing and tossing them old stories round
Like she knew she walked in right on time
To remind me why I left it all behind
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah, that's why I left this town
Can't turn on that local country station
She's right there in every song they're playing
All the used be's are driving me insane
Gonna cuss that comeback sign when I leave this place
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah, that's why I left this town
The longer I stay
The more it's clear
Why I left this town
Why I left this town
It ain't home sweet home
If she's still here
That's why I left this town
That's why I left this town
Same bar, same drinks
Same missing her
Heartache, too late, knew it was gonna hurt
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
Yeah that's why I left this town
Same sign, same roads
Every winding curve
There's not an inch of this ground that don't take me back to her
But I came back here I am on the verge of a breakdown
That's why I left this town
