There ain't a lot that you can do in this town    You drive down to the lake and then you turn back around    You go to school and you learn to read and write    So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life    I work at the fillin' station on the interstate    Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates    They ask me how far into Memphis son, and where's the nearest beer    And they don't even know that there's a town around here       Someday I'm finally gonna let go    'Cause I know there's a better way    And I wanna know what's over that rainbow    I'm gonna get out of here someday       Now my brother went to college cause he played football    I'm still hangin' round cause I'm a little bit small    I got me a 67 Chevy, she's low and sleek and black    Someday I'll put her on that interstate and never look back
