Meanwhile Back At Mama's

Runnin' round in this new truck, bank let's me borrow from month to month

Runnin' out of credit and find a little cash on the radio

Standin' still they're blowin past, numbers on cars goin' NASCAR fast

What I wouldn't give for a slow down, don't ya know

'Cause where I come from only the horses run

When the day is done, we take it easy

Meanwhile back at Mama's, the porch light's on, come in if you wanna

Supper's on the stove and beers in the fridge, red sun sinkin' out low on the ridge,

Games on the tube and Daddy smokes cigarettes, whiskey keeps his whistle wet

Funny the things you thought you'd never miss, in a world gone crazy as this

Well I found a girl and we don't fit in here

Talk about how hard it is to breathe here

Even with the windows down can't catch a southern breeze here

One of these days gonna pack it up and leave here ---

'Cause meanwhile back at Mama's, the porch light's on, come on in if you wanna

Supper's on the stove and beers in the fridge, red sun sinkin' out low on the ridge

Games on the tube and Daddy smokes cigarettes, whiskey keeps his whistle wet

Funny the things you thought you'd never miss, in a world gone crazy as this

Oh, I miss yeah a little dirt on the road I miss corn growin' in a row

I miss being somebody everybody knows there everybody knows everybody

I miss those small town roots, walkin' around in muddy boots

The sound of rain on an old tin roof, it's time we head on back ---

'Cause meanwhile back at Mama's the for sale sign's goin' up

And I'm gonna dump this truck and the little I got on a loan to own and a three-acre lot

Put supper on the stove and beer in the fridge, goin' for broke and we're gonna be rich

Watch the sun settin' on the ridge, baby, tell me what you think about this ---

Me and you back at Mama's

Yeah, me and you back at Mama's
