Same saturday night same ‘ole crowd Draggin' main to the safeway then we turn back around ‘Til curfew and head down to the river's edge and get drunk Ain't nothing new what else you gonna do out in podunk Well I knew this six string was my ticket out No flashin' red light was gonna slow me down Eighteen years old everything that I own in the back of that trunk I put a dip in my mouth and headed straight out-outta podunk Goodbye daddy looked me in the eye said go where you gotta go But don't forget to call home And momma cried keep Jesus in your life and I hugged her one last time And then I headed down the road in a dusty cloud of smoke Out of podunk A lot of years gone by showin' on my face Nothing in this life that time hasn't changed I chased a lot of dreams and some of them came true Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from is the place very I'm runnin' to Another saturday night singin' to the same ‘ol crowd Still playin' this six string but things are different now I met one of them girls turn your whole world around girls And wouldn't you know it We got our eyes on a house ‘bout a hundred miles south Out in podunk Goodbye her daddy looked me in the eye And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home And her momma cried said keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time Then we headed down that road to start a family of our own Out in podunk Goodbye her daddy looked me in the eye And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home And her momma cried said keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time Then we headed down that road to start a family of our own Out in podunk Goodbye her daddy looked me in the eye And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home And her momma cried said keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time Then we headed down that road to start a family of our own Out in podunk
