Lyrics
Woke up to a road crew working outside
Guess it was the last straw made me decide
Sick of all the deadlines sick of all the street crime
Getting into my mind day after day
Putting up with all the noise from next door
Kids are always screaming can?t take much more
Buddy wants his rent paid, feeling like a cheap maid
Wish I never had stayed living this way
At the crossroads and we start to slow
I check the mirror and the back, but I know
Lets hit the gas it?s time to go
Coming home to where the sun shines brightly
Driving down another long and dusty road
Past the old green diner, where the beer tastes finer yeah
Coming home to where the grass is greener
Cross the dusty basin where the river flows
Pass the old bus station, wrapped in conversation yeah
Gonna get my new life started today
Gonna push the grey clouds out of the way
Need to get my head straight now before it?s too late
Just don?t think I can wait day after day
At the crossroads and we start to slow
I check the mirror and the back, but I know
Lets hit the gas it?s time to go
Coming home to where the sun shines brightly
Driving down another long and dusty road
Past the old green diner, where the beer tastes finer yeah
Coming home to where the grass is greener
Cross the dusty basin where the river flows
Pass the old bus station, wrapped in conversation yeah
