Midwestern Guy

All of those nights playing music

Far away from my friends

They all thought I was cruising

But I just missed them again

What's up with everyone choosing

Is that how it's gonna end

Either you're winning or losing

Living out in the bends

Take me back to the city

Take me back to my bed

It'd say it's a pity

Habits we never shed

I remember your body

On the day that we met

In my memory, it's spotty

But in my heart it's like lead

A river is rusted, on its own

Memories busted, now unknown

Enemies trusted, in your home

Ancient unturned stone, lead me home, lead me home

You know that life's not a movie

It's not a picture or dream

But baby girl it's a doozie

I know you know what I mean

I think I'll move down to Texas

Find a place in the sky

I'll stay close to the border

You know I'll always be a midwestern guy
