It's a one life town with a lot of Gravel roads and very few road signs It's a county square thats round where everybody knows what's going on All the time day and night It's a little of the beaten path a Kind of place you don't find everyday And I can't wait to stay It's where my dad and my grandad his dad all grew up It's where I learned to fish around thirteen Drive a stick shift truck And I have friends who couldn't wait To turn eighteen pack up and move away Not me no not me I can't wait to stay It don't have no neon lights And all the stores close down about eight o'clock And if it don't rain might be a handful Chewing a handful in the sonic parking lot that's all we got Come Sunday morning suits and ties and Dresses fill the church where I was saved And I can't wait to stay Not a day goes by that you don't hear a hey there how you been You don't have to call to say you're coming Just stop in For the life of me I can't see why Anyone would want to leave this place Cause I can't wait to stay It's where my dad and grandad and his dad all grew up It's where I learned to fish around thirteen Drive a stick shift truck And I have friends who couldn't wait To turn eighteen pack up and move away Not me no not me I can't wait to stay Yeah I can't wait to stay
