small town heroes
She was the queen
She got all her drugs for free
She walked up to her daddys door
He said,'You dont live here anymore'
She wanted love, wanted love
Oh , but she just couldnt get enough,enough
And my man, he wanders round
Well he lets all those young women down
And they say, Darling, oh, cant you stay?'
But he says, 'Baby, already on my way'
They wanted love, wanted love
Oh, but they just couldnt get enough,enough
Well, all these people and all these things
Now whats the point in a wedding ring?
Cause we might not be here when next year comes
Well I guess you gotta watch your back and carry a gun
Oh Baby girl, where did you go?
I threw you out where the cold wind blows
Are you in the Vidalia with your no-good mom?
I just couldnt watch you stick it in your arm
You wanted love, wanted love
Oh , but I just couldnt give enough,enough
From the boogie-down to Bowling Green
I rode the night train to infinity
I tempted fate and I acted smart
I grew some callous on my heart
I wanted love, wanted love
Oh, but I just couldnt give enough, enough
Well, all these places, yeah all these towns
Now whats the point in settling down?
Cause we might not be here when next year comes
So you better live it like youre on the run
