Well, the talk around town is
We finally got a good team this year
Yeah, that QB number eight
He's gonna take us all the way to state
It's a small town Friday night
It's the anthem underneath the lights
They're gonna kick it off any minute
I hate to miss it
But I'm home
Sipping on Bourbon and ice
Wondering where she is tonight
Knowing I'll never know
It's a losing game
Man, we were on a damn good run
I thought she would always stay
Now I'm home and she's away
If you'd have told me back in high school
That she'd fall for a guy like me
How does a lanky, long-haired rebel boy
End up with the homecoming queen?
I can't show up and cheer 'em on
Without her by my side
And everyone asking why
Yeah, that's why
I'm home
Sipping on Bourbon and ice
Wondering where she is tonight
Knowing I'll never know
It's a losing game
Man, we were on a damn good run
I thought she would always stay
Now I'm home and she's away
♪
Oh, if she ain't back by late October
Guess it's over
So I'm home
Sipping on Bourbon and ice
Wondering where she is tonight
Knowing I'll never know
It's a losing game
Man, we were on a damn good run
I thought she would always stay
Now I'm home and she's away
Yeah, I'm home and she's away
