Never Leave

I got out and stayed away

And I just visit family and friends

I tell stories, keep me entertained

And they believe every word I say

And there ain't much to this town, I guess

But I'll probably come back to die

Ain't it funny how some things never change

How hard it is to cover up lies?

'Cause Ferndale creek still runs the same as it did five years ago

And the high school still does an awful job of teaching kids what they need to know

And my ex-girlfriend's got two boyfriends and that's funny as hell to me

I guess that's how it goes when you stay back home and never leave

♪

You talk trash, you're cussin' up and down

That you were here to make the first move

Pretty soon they'll make you the mayor, or at least you hope they do

And I may be wrong, hell it might be heaven

But every time I pass that sign

It's the same old stuff

Ain't a damn thing changed 'cause everybody's high

'Cause Ferndale creek still runs the same as it did five years ago

And the high school still does an awful job of teaching kids what they need to know

And my ex-girlfriend's got two boyfriends and that's funny as hell to me

I guess that's how it goes when you stay back home and never leave

I guess we'll see just how that goes when I move back home and never leave
