Exitville (Remaster)

We only come here cos we have to
And we leave here when we will
Nobody ever stays here
They just stop to get their fill
And living ain't for keeping
Clean your plate and pay your bill
Until we arrive, we're wasting time at Exitville

Patty packs the pickup
With as much as she could load
At breakfast she was married
But by lunch she was on the road
Her husband ain't a bad guy
But their lives were standing still
Now she's filling up
That truck at Exitville

We only come here cos we have to
And we leave here when we will
Nobody ever stays here
They just stop to get their fill
And living ain't for keeping
Clean your plate and pay your bill
Until we arrive, we're wasting time at Exitville

Patrick lets the engine run
While pumping out that gas
He pulls up in a hurry
And he pulls out just as fast
His luggage won't leave room for two
He's got no time to kill
He's laying rubber
On the ramp from Exitville

We only come here cos we have to
And we leave here when we will
Nobody ever stays here
They just stop to get their fill
And living ain't for keeping
Clean your plate and pay your bill
Until we arrive, we're wasting time at Exitville

They say that life's a highway
And you can't just turn around
So if you're going my way baby
Let's push that pedal down to the ground

William waves the waitress down
For a slice of pumpkin pie
Tips her twenty dollars
With a grin and winks his eye
Says don't you ever wonder
What's over that next hill
Drop your apron
And escape from Exitville

We only come here cos we have to
And we leave here when we will
Nobody ever stays here
They just stop to get their fill
And living ain't for keeping
Clean your plate and pay your bill
Until we arrive, we're wasting time at Exitville
