So your home town's bringing you down
Are ya drowning in the small talk and the chatter
Or you gonna step into line like your daddy done
Punching the time and driving lifes long letteer
You've been howing at the moon like a slack jawed fool
And breaking every rule they can throw on
But one of these days it's gonna be right soon
You'll find your legs and go and stay gone
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow
Young man going to make a stand
You beg, steal you borrow
Ya beg ya steal ya borrow
Well all the friends that you knew in school
They used to be so cool now they just bore you
Well look at them now, already pulling the plow
So quick to take to grain like some old mule
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow
Young man going to make a stand
You beg, steal you borrow
Ya beg ya steal ya borrow
Dreaming of the day
You're gonna pack your bags
Put the miles away
Oh, just grab your girl and go
Where no one knows you
What will all the old folks say?
So your home town's bringing you down
Are ya drowing in the small talk and the chatter
Or you gonna step into line like your daddy done
Punching the time and driving lifes long letter
Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow
Young man going to make a stand
You beg, steal you borrow
Ya beg ya steal ya borrow
