There's so much goin' on in this town
To keep me busy, I've been runnin' around
Up and down all these avenues
Doin' everything but thinkin' 'bout you
As long as I stay on 'em, I'm fine
The city side of those city limit signs
You don't really cross my mind
[Chorus]
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
I wish I was runnin' by your house first
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure
Shines like gold down these old
Round bail, river valley back roads
Way back in the holler where the grass grows
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
Out here on the outskirts
[Verse 2]
If I'da had a lick of damn sense
I'd be on the greener side of that fence
Little starter house we've finally outgrown
Twelve-hundred feet we're 'bout to add on
Smilin' out there watchin' them
Big ol' yellow buckets 'bout to break ground
While you're shootin' all my baby names down
[Chorus]
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
I wish I was runnin' by your house first
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure
Shines like gold down these old
Round bail, river valley back roads
Way back in the holler where the grass grows
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
Out here on the outskirts
[Bridge]
I'm over all these Saturday nights
I miss the stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
We were gonna give up on the fast life
Have a couple babies, raise 'em up right
Take 'em to the river, get 'em baptized
Back in our day, if I'da just stayed
I wouldn't be livin' in this condo
Hangin' out with Hailey from Toronto
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' uptown, puttin' roots down
Out here on the outskirts
V tem mestu je toliko
Da sem zaposlen, sem tekel naokoli
Navzgor in navzdol vse te poti
Naredite vse, razen da bi vas razmišljali
Dokler jih ostanem, sem v redu
Mestna stran teh mejnih omejitev znakov
V resnici mi ne prekrižaš misli
[Refren]
Toda kmalu, ko pridem sem na obrobju
Želim si, da bi najprej tekel za tvojo hišo
Nekaj, kar je poletje na jugu
Zasije kot zlato do starega
Okrogla varnost, rečne doline zadnje ceste
Nazaj v hollerju, kjer raste trava
Bog vsemogočni, srček, bili smo tako blizu
Da se to mesto odvrne in se poravna
Tukaj na obrobju
[Verz 2]
Če bi imel lizanje prekletega smisla
Bil bi na bolj zeleni strani te ograje
Little Starter House smo končno prerasli
Dvanajst sto metrov, ki jih lahko dodamo
Smilin 'tam jih gledam
Velike ol 'rumene vedre', da se razbije
Medtem ko snemaš vsa moja otroška imena navzdol
[Refren]
Toda kmalu, ko pridem sem na obrobju
Želim si, da bi najprej tekel za tvojo hišo
Nekaj, kar je poletje na jugu
Zasije kot zlato do starega
Okrogla varnost, rečne doline zadnje ceste
Nazaj v hollerju, kjer raste trava
Bog vsemogočni, srček, bili smo tako blizu
Da se to mesto odvrne in se poravna
Tukaj na obrobju
[Most]
Sem čez vse te sobotne noči
Pogrešam zvezde v tvojih očeh
[Refren]
Odpovedali smo se hitremu življenju
Imejte nekaj dojenčkov, dvignite jih prav
Vzemite jih do reke, se krstijo
Nazaj v našem dnevu, če bi samo ostal
V tem stanovanju ne bi živel
Obešanje z Hailey iz Toronta
Bog vsemogočni, srček, bili smo tako blizu
Da se odmaknete navzgor, puttin 'korenine navzdol
Tukaj na obrobju
