Why I Can't Leave

You never did care too much for this two lane town, did you, babe?
 You've been talking 'bout getting out
 Chasing them dreams down since seventh grade
 And I can't blame you for the way God made you
 You need more skyline than a water tower with your name on it
 And I need more Chevrolet with a little bit of red dirt clay on it
 And that's just you and that's just me
 And that's just the way it's gotta be
 Yeah, the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
 Little rough around the edges, like that rusty barbed wire
 Baby, I know that ain't your speed
 That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave
 You need more stations on your radio
 Them kind of places where the corn don't grow
 Baby, I love you, but we both got dreams
 That's why you can't stay
 That's why I can't leave
 We had a good run under that southern sun, didn't we?
 And you can call me up, and I'll fill you in
 If you're missing this town and me
 I need a front porch view, but you need a balcony and
 No matter what, you know where I'll be
 Where the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
 Little rough around the edges, like that rusty barbed wire
 Baby, I know that ain't your speed
 That's why you can't stay
 That's why I can't leave
 You need more stations on your radio
 Them kind of places where the corn don't grow
 Baby, I love you, but we both got dreams
 That's why you can't stay
 That's why I can't leave
 Oh, oh, oh
 Yeah, that's why I can't leave
 Yeah, the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
 Little rough around the edges like that rusty barbed wire
 Baby, I know that ain't your speed
 That's why your daddy's out there loading up your Jeep
 Yeah, them Friday night lights ain't your kinda shine
 Wish I could, but I can't say it ain't mine
 Little town like this, what you get is what you see
 That's why you can't stay
 That's why I can't leave
 No, I can't leave
