"Hate This Town" lyrics

A drink at the bar where we met taste a little more bitter than sweet
Those back porch Reds that we smoked just don't burn the same to me
Takin' the long way home don't do one damn thing
No, nothing's changed, except everything

Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd think about gettin' out
Never saw me feelin' the way I do right now
Your goodbye painted every wall on Main Street
Back roads got paved with your memory
One step away from puttin' that pedal down
Never thought I'd hate this town

Used to dream about a little white house on a piece of land
Just a few miles down the road from where mom and daddy live
But ever since that ghost of you started hangin' around
It's like you took these reigns on them roots
Pulled 'em right out of the ground

Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd think about gettin' out
Never saw me feelin' the way I do right now
Your goodbye painted every wall on Main Street
Back roads got paved with your memory
One step away from puttin' that pedal down
Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd hate this town

Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd think about gettin' out
Never saw me feelin' the way I do right now
Yeah, your goodbye painted every wall on Main Street
Back roads got paved with your memory
One step away from puttin' that pedal down
Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd hate this town
Never thought I'd think about gettin' out
