Tale Of Two Towns

Got friends back there, went from kids to fathers

Just like their fathers

Went from raising hell to raising daughters

It's blue jerseys straight to blue collars

Don't dream no farther than that city limit sign

I feel a little free, I feel a little guilty

'Cause I grew a little bit, and now it don't fit me

Gotta give it credit for the man I am

But I gotta lot of questions on the other hand

Did my parents settle when they settled down?

Are you more brave for leaving or sticking around?

It's one dot on a map, but a tale of two towns

Thank God I grew up there, thank God I got out

Sometimes I wonder who I'd a married

Would I be happy barely if I stayed?

Thought of waiting another year straight up scares me

'Cause there comes a time when it's too late

And that muddy water turns into quicksand

And you say you're gonna leave, but you know can't

Did my parents settle when they settled down?

Are you more brave for leaving or sticking around?

It's one dot on a map, but a tale of two towns

Thank God I grew up there, thank God I got out

It's all in the way that you look at those memories

If that water tower's half full

Or half empty

Did my parents settle when they settled down?

Are you more brave for leaving or sticking around?

It's one dot on a map, but a tale of two towns

Thank God I grew up there, thank God I got out

Thank God I grew up there, thank God I got out

Thank God I grew up there, thank God I got out
