Lady A Goodbye Town
[Verse 1]
Right there's the high school where we met
We'd sneak out back for a couple of kisses and a cigarette
And that parking lot was our first date
And her momma slammed the door
When I dropped her off too late
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She's gone
Chasing that highway wind
She's gone
She ain't coming back again
[Chorus]
This ain't nothing
Nothing but a goodbye town
These streets are only bringing me down
Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town
[Verse 2]
We sat down on those courthouse steps
Fourth of July, those fireworks over our heads
And they'd ring the bells of that little church
No there ain't nowhere I can look that doesn't hurt
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She's gone
But I still feel her on my skin
She's gone
But she ain't coming back again
[Chorus]
This ain't nothing
Nothing but a goodbye town
These streets are only bringing me down
Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town
[Bridge]
I can't erase the memories
And I can't burn the whole place down
[Chorus 2]
No this ain't nothing
Nothing but a goodbye town
To hell if I'm sticking around
Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town (Oh, yeah)
Out of this goodbye town
I'm out of this town
So out of this town
[Break]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
You'll be just a memory in the back of my mind
You'll be just a memory, yeah
Oh, somewhere in the back of my mind
In the back of my mind, yeah
Oh, one day you're gonna look back at what we had
You're gonna think of me
You're gonna think of me
When I'm long gone
I'll be long gone
