Get Back to Town

Get back to town

You look down your nose
Like you're better than me
You're smug and assured that you're right
But you're not the man you're pretending to be
You're the first one to run from a fight

You're building your city
Got fountains and malls
Green lawns and a new culddesac
You push your agenda to shut down the dairy
Got plans for a new walking path

Go on, get back to town
Get back to town while you can
Go on, get back to town
You're sucking the life from this land

You bought all the real estate
Looking for rainbows
Cause stuff makes you feel like a man
You came here to own this
To make it your hobby
But this isn't part of my plan

Cause we see the same things a bit differently
I guess it's perspective or view
Cause rain means a hay crop for people like me
To you it's a weekend that's ruined

Go on, get back to town
Get back to town while you can
Go on, get back to town
You're sucking the life from this land

I heard you were out at the bar Saturday
New snapshirts and boots how they shine
I wore my Carhart out hauling hay
Would you rather have your life than mine?
Oh I think that you'd rather have mine

You saw in a movie
You saw it on TV
The dark hat the house with a view
When you put down the money
When you pay for it buddy
What the hell then are you gonna do?

You're gonna ask for advice from a man
Spent his life with his hands in the dirt
You may not agree with people like me
But if you ask I will give you my shirt
Just ask and I'll give you my shirt

Go on, get back to town
Get back to town while you can
Go on, get back to town
You're sucking the life from this land
And you're pissing me off with your plans
