Verse 1

Weeds blow tall on a broken train track

Ruth B. draws we're fixin' to get high

Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum

Chorus

But everybody says this place is beautiful

And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye

But everything's the same this town is pitiful

And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly

Interlude

Life goes by on a Talihina sky

Verse 2

The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble

The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share

Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time

Chorus repeat
