"Back Home" lyrics

"Back Home"

I'm either moving like molasses on a California freeway
Laid over and hung over in a place I can't recall
Last week was Arizona, Carolina then Daytona
Be careful what you wish for, man, I think I've seen it all

Back home
Everybody knows, everybody knows everybody's business
Back home
A one stop light road
You blink, you'd never know you missed it
I was livin' just to make it
So, I was dyin' to escape it
It turns out, there ain't nothing in the world like being gone
To make you wanna go back home
Back home

That map dot hasn't changed a lot
Ever since the day I left it
A little blurry in the rear view
Through a cloud of gravel dust
And everything I use to hate
Is everything that makes me miss it
The more I look for who I am
More I remember who I was

Back home
Everybody knows, everybody knows everybody's business
Back home
A one stop light road
You blink, you'd never know you missed it
I was livin' just to make it
So, I was dyin' to escape it
It turns out, there ain't nothing in the world like being gone
To make you wanna go back home

Back home
Everybody knows, everybody knows everybody's business
Back home
A one stop light road
You blink, you'd never know you missed it
I was livin' just to make it
So, I was dyin' to escape it
It turns out, there ain't nothing in the world like being gone
To make you wanna go back home
Back home
