Lyrics

Concrete dinosaur, Jesus in a screen door
 They don't hold a candle to you
 I get no satisfaction from roadside attractions
 And honey I have seen me a few
 They got the blue ox, chimney rocks
 Two-headed livestock, alligator jumparoo
 I can turn my back on all manner of distraction
 'Cause I'm just passing through
 I'm coming home, just as fast as I can
 This life of roaming 'round, it wears a little thin
 I've seen the seven greatest wonders of the world
 And I'm still your girl, I'm still your girl
 I've seen the corn palace, the fair in Dallas
 Drive through redwood trees
 A giant strawberry, that tower in Paree
 And a two-ton ball of string
 They got the bad lands, snake farms
 Alamo, longhorns, rock star millionaires
 Don't you think it's funny how all that money
 Doesn't get them anywhere
 I'm coming home just as fast as I can
 I'm just not entertained by any other man
 There might be seven billion people in this world
 But I'm still your girl, I'm still your girl
 Lookout mountain is a molehill
 The grand canyon's just a big old crack
 Old faithful is fickle, Niagara falls a trickle
 The Taj Mahal is nothing but a shack
 The London Bridge, the pyramids
 They're what you call a passing fad
 You can look for me when the new wears off
 'Cause honey I'll be heading back
 I'm coming home and I'll be there soon
 'Cause I've seen every thing
 I'm like the man in the moon
 Well, I'm just sitting up there
 Looking down at the world
 But I'm still your girl, I'm still your girl
 I'm still your girl, and I'm coming home
