Outskirts Of Town

Past the fields of his dreams all the cars drove
 Ninety to nothin' towards town
 He'd wave and he'd watch and he'd wonder
 Then the dust would all settle back down
 Well ain't nothin' out there but an old drive in screen
 Where Elizabeth Taylor was queen
 And like the rest she quit comin' around
 To the outskirts of town
 They say there's so much out there for you
 Maybe he never will know
 The buses they load up the dreamers
 But leavin' was to far to go
 Washed in the blood and surrounded
 By the land and the love he had known
 Now he'll plant his dreams in the ground
 On the outskirts of town
 Chorus
 On the outskirts of town he's livin' a dream
 Where they weather their storms
 Praying down on the their knees
 And they hold to each other 'cause they know what they found
 On the outskirts of town
 He looks past the fields at the sun rise
 Watchin' the stars as they fade
 He sits on the hood of his pick-up
 Thinkin' that he's got it made
 Because the prettiest girl that he's ever seen
 Lives up the road just a piece
 And they're talkin' about settling down
 On the outskirts of town
 Chorus
 On the outskirts of town
 On the outskirts of town
