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
U ovom gradu ima toliko toga
Da me zaokupi, trčao sam okolo
Gore i dolje sve ove puteve
Radi sve, ali razmišljaš o tebi
Sve dok ih ostanem, dobro sam
Gradska strana tih gradskih znakova
Zapravo mi ne padaš na pamet
[Zbor]
Ali čim izađem ovdje na periferiji
Volio bih da sam prvo trčao tvoja kuća
Nešto je zasigurno ljeto na jugu
Sjaje poput zlata dolje ove stare
Okrugla jamstvo, stražnje ceste riječne doline
Puno natrag u kukure gdje trava raste
Bože Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako bliski
Odbaciti ovaj grad i naseliti se dolje
Ovdje na periferiji
[Stih 2]
Da sam imao lizanje prokletog smisla
Bila bih na zelenijoj strani te ograde
Mala starter kuća koju smo napokon prerasli
Dvanaest stopa, koji smo 'da bismo dodali
Smiješi se tamo gledajući ih
Veliki ol 'žute kante' za razbijanje tla
Dok pucate u sva moja imena za bebe dolje
[Zbor]
Ali čim izađem ovdje na periferiji
Volio bih da sam prvo trčao tvoja kuća
Nešto je zasigurno ljeto na jugu
Sjaje poput zlata dolje ove stare
Okrugla jamstvo, stražnje ceste riječne doline
Puno natrag u kukure gdje trava raste
Bože Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako bliski
Odbaciti ovaj grad i naseliti se dolje
Ovdje na periferiji
[Most]
Ja sam preko svih ovih subota navečer
Nedostaju mi zvijezde u tvojim očima
[Zbor]
Morali bismo odustati od brzog života
Imajte nekoliko beba, podignite ih ispravno
Uzmi ih u rijeku, krsti se
Natrag u naš dan, ako bih samo ostao
Ne bih se živio u ovom stanu
Druži se s Hailey iz Toronta
Bože Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako bliski
DICKIN 'UPTOWN, KOLIŠINE KOLETI DOLJE
Ovdje na periferiji
