Yeah, I'm just here for the weekend
In the place I grew up in
A whole lot's changed in this town, but one thing ain't changed a bit
You can turn the barber shop into a parking lot, and take down that dollar store
But please, don't take what I came back for
That bar can keep our first kiss, that tree can keep our rope swing
The one we carved our names in summer 2013
That truck can keep our good years
Those memories, they can stay right there
Tell this small town to keep everything we had
Just gimme the girl back, gimme the girl back
Gimme the girl back, oh, oh (oh, oh)
If this jon-boat was a time machine, yeah, you know where I'd go
I'd push that two-stroke off the dock back to those days of gold
Back to where it started at that dirt patch party
Back before the day I let her get away (let her get away)
That bar can keep our first kiss, that tree can keep our rope swing
The one we carved our names in, summer 2013
That truck can keep our good years
Those memories they can stay right there
Tell this small town to keep everything we had
Just gimme the girl back, gimme the girl back
Gimme the girl back, oh, oh (oh, oh)
Hmm, I just want my girl back
I just want my girl
