Stop In The Road
Put the hammer down, just ignore that county line
I've had enough of this old town, we're leavin' it behind
Folks have dropped their friendly act and now they're gettin' cold
And this old place ain't home it's just a stop in the road
Don't worry about our clothes and things, we're leavin' them behind
They'll be right here when we get back if I should change my mind
But that's not likely 'cause this way of life is gettin' old
This old place ain't home, it's just a stop in the road
Just a stop in the road, not where you're gonna say is born and raised
Just a stop in the road, too soon you get to feelin' out of place
You never see it but you feel it smirkin' every grin
Too soon you get the feelin' you're on the outside lookin' in
I wouldn't want to be caught here and find I'm gettin' old
This old place ain't home, it's just a stop in the road
Don't worry where we're goin', just drive till you feel right
We don't need a roadmap to get us out of sight
We'll start lookin' for a place where we can settle down
But right now, do us a favor, get us out of town
Drive this old machine like it's been entered in a race
Don't slow it down until you see a smile across my face
I could tell we didn't belong here without havin' to be told
This old place ain't home, it's just a stop in the road
Just a stop in the road, not where you're gonna say is born and raised
Just a stop in the road, too soon you get to feelin' out of place
You never see it but you feel it smirkin' every grin
Too soon you get the feelin' you're on the outside lookin' in
I wouldn't want to be caught here and find I'm gettin' old
This old place ain't home, it's just a stop in the road
