I use to run from the past   But the world got to spinnin' so fast   I run from the future now      I run as fast as I can   Tryin' to be a simple man   I just want to slow down      Well, laugh if you want to   Call me a backward fool   But I ain't takin' this ride      Y'all just go on ahead and go   Let me out by the side of the road   All I wanna do is go on home      Don't go online, I don't watch TV   'Cause I know all I'm gonna see   Is something stupid goin' on      Stupids in the water these days   They're gonna drink it anyway   'Til they don't know right from wrong      Yeah, laugh if you want to   Call me a backward fool   But I ain't takin' this ride      Y'all just go on ahead and go   Let me out by the side of the road   All I wanna do is go on home      Yeah, all I wanna do is go on home
