To all you old rounders and all my bad weather friends And all the dreams that never came true There's this road and she's laying so pretty And I'm going to see her through When they ask you why I ain't around Tell 'em all I skipped town Left them city lights in the rear view mirror I'm tired of the losing game Stuck with these small town blues again Oh people here all they talk about is change Ain't it funny how things just stay the same ♪ All the broken lovers and the long lost verses I once put down on paper Tonight I'll tie up these highway laces And watch 'em all burn to vapour When they ask you why I ain't around Tell 'em all I skipped town As that old sunset just disappears I'm tired of the losing game Stuck with these small town blues again Oh people here all they talk about is change Ain't it funny how things just stay the same ♪ I'm tired of the losing game Stuck with these small town blues again Oh people here all they talk about is changing I think I'll try my luck somewhere new baby I'm so tired of the losing game Stuck with these small town blues again Comes a time in life when you gotta up and leave For something better and brighter I believe There's something better and brighter I believe
