If you were here in Stark ville   Towny boys would love the way you stare   If you were here in Stark ville   Well the local girls they wouldn't have a prayer      Well I've spent a reckless night inside the wonder   Of your everlasting charm   Now I'm haunted by geography and the flora   And the fauna of your heart      At the dawning of some road worn day   I call you on a whim just to say      The mornin' birds are singin'   But I could not do them justice   So I hung up and I fell back to sleep      But I'm in love with my mobility   Oh, sometimes this life can be a drag   Like when I notice your nobility and how my leaving   It only held you back      But I remember one occasion when you were drinkin'   And you asked me to the coast   But I was hell bent on agony back then   And so I missed the boat      At the dawnin' of some road worn day   I call you on a whim just to say   My regrets become distractions, cannot do them justice   And I hung up and I fell back to sleep      When I was down in Stark ville   I was hidin' out inside some comfort in   From a local gang of troubadours   When the home coming Queen, she come ridin' in      Yea, but I slipped out of my room into the rain   And I went runnin' for my health   I watched those headlights turn to moonlight   Finally, I was runnin' by myself      Now it's the dawning of some road worn day   And I call you on a whim just to say   The mornin' birds are singin'
