[00:07.93]There's so much goin' on in this town
[00:10.77]To keep me busy, I've been runnin' around
[00:14.47]Up and down all these avenues
[00:16.85]Doin' everything but thinkin 'bout you
[00:20.36]As long as I stay on 'em, I'm fine
[00:23.46]The city side of those city limit signs
[00:27.15]You don't really cross my mind
[00:29.96]But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
[00:33.42]I wish I was runnin' by your house first
[00:36.69]Somethin' 'bout a summer in the South, sure
[00:39.83]Shines like gold down these old
[00:43.55]Round bale, river valley backroads
[00:46.44]Way back in the holler where the grass grows
[00:49.48]God almighty, baby, we were that close
[00:52.73]To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
[00:56.62]Out here on the outskirts
[00:59.90]🎵
[01:05.34]If I'da had a lick of damn sense
[01:08.10]I'd be on the greener side of that fence
[01:11.68]Little starter house we've finally outgrown
[01:14.57]Twelve-hundred feet we're 'bout to add on
[01:17.92]Smilin' out there watchin' them
[01:20.93]Big ol' yellow buckets 'bout to break ground
[01:24.62]While you're shootin' all my baby names down
[01:27.71]But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
[01:30.99]I wish I was runnin' by your house first
[01:34.41]Somethin' 'bout a summer in the South, sure
[01:37.53]Shines like gold down these old
[01:40.87]Round bale, river valley backroads
[01:43.85]Way back in the holler where the grass grows
[01:47.12]God almighty, baby, we were that close
[01:50.22]To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
[01:54.48]Out here on the outskirts
[01:57.95]🎵
[01:59.99]I'm over all these Saturday nights
[02:02.60]I miss the stars in your eyes
[02:06.43]We were gonna give up on the fast life
[02:09.56]Have a couple babies, raise 'em up right
[02:12.76]Take 'em to the river, get 'em baptized
[02:16.00]Back in our day, if I'd have just stayed
[02:19.22]I wouldn't be livin' in this condo
[02:22.18]Hangin' out with Hailey from Toronto
[02:25.38]God almighty, baby, we were that close
[02:28.86]To ditchin' uptown, puttin' roots down
[02:32.83]Out here on the outskirts
[02:34.97]🎵
