lyrics

Sit in my room play videogames
Till you come home and we go out
I’ll remember everything you say’s a secret
So I can keep you to myself

What did you think
Would happen when winter hit
When did you think
I’d stop acting like such a kid
I’m stuck in the south
For as long as it’ll have me
Those sweet Georgia breezes
Are bitter in the snow

We framed all these pictures
Of our heroes in their old clothes
Hey Paul, you told me it’d be OK
So I learned to keep trying until I could let it be

What did you think
Would happen when the fall term ended
When did you think
I’d grow up a bit
I’m stuck in the Bible Belt
Till I read their damn book
These sweet Georgia peaches
Are rotting holes in my teeth

Wait, I swear it’s not safe
To let me lead the way
I’ve been in and out of uncertainty
So, stay if you need a headache
That’s all I can pay
I’ll try to find you something better along the way
I don’t think it’ll ever be the same
That’s all right with me

What did you think would happen
When summer came and went
Did you think I’d
Really give in, you know me
I’m stuck to the road
Till my feet and my head agree
But I’ve only had enough money
To get as far as fucking Tennessee

Wait, I swear it’s not safe
To let me lead the way
I’ve been in and out of uncertainty
Stay if you need a headache
That’s all I can pay
I’ll try to find you something better along the way
I don’t think it’ll ever be the same
Cause no matter what’s on the dial I hear my voice quivering
With every road sign telling me to fix the mess I’m making
I don’t think I’ll ever see it again, but hey
That’s all right with me
