There's so much goin' on in this town
To keep me busy, I've been runnin' around
Up and down all these avenues
Doin' everything but thinkin' 'bout you
As long as I stay on 'em, I'm fine
The city side of those city limit signs
You don't really cross my mind
[Chorus]
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
I wish I was runnin' by your house first
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure
Shines like gold down these old
Round bail, river valley back roads
Way back in the holler where the grass grows
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
Out here on the outskirts
[Verse 2]
If I'da had a lick of damn sense
I'd be on the greener side of that fence
Little starter house we've finally outgrown
Twelve-hundred feet we're 'bout to add on
Smilin' out there watchin' them
Big ol' yellow buckets 'bout to break ground
While you're shootin' all my baby names down
[Chorus]
But soon as I get out here on the outskirts
I wish I was runnin' by your house first
Somethin' 'bout a summer in the south sure
Shines like gold down these old
Round bail, river valley back roads
Way back in the holler where the grass grows
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' this town and settlin' down
Out here on the outskirts
[Bridge]
I'm over all these Saturday nights
I miss the stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
We were gonna give up on the fast life
Have a couple babies, raise 'em up right
Take 'em to the river, get 'em baptized
Back in our day, if I'da just stayed
I wouldn't be livin' in this condo
Hangin' out with Hailey from Toronto
God almighty, baby, we were that close
To ditchin' uptown, puttin' roots down
Out here on the outskirts
Toliko se događa u ovom gradu
Da me zauzme, ja sam trčao
Gore i dolje sve ove avenije
Radim sve, ali misliš "
Sve dok ostanem na njima, dobro sam
Gradska strana tih graničnih znakova grada
Ne prelazite mi pamet
[Chorus]
Ali čim izlazim ovde na periferiji
Volio bih da prvo trčim tvojom kućom
Nešto je ljeto na jugu sigurno
Sjaji poput zlata niz ove stare
Okrugle kaucije, povratne puteve rijeke doline
Povratak u holler gdje trava raste
Bog Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako blizu
Da izbaci ovaj grad i naseljavanje
Ovde na periferiji
[VERSE 2]
Da imam lizanje prokletog smisla
Bio bih na zelenijoj strani te ograde
Mala starter kuća konačno smo prerasla
Dvanaest stotinu stopala smo za dodavanje
Smilin tamo gledaju ih
Big ol 'žute kante za razbijanje tla
Dok pucate svu imena moje bebe
[Chorus]
Ali čim izlazim ovde na periferiji
Volio bih da prvo trčim tvojom kućom
Nešto je ljeto na jugu sigurno
Sjaji poput zlata niz ove stare
Okrugle kaucije, povratne puteve rijeke doline
Povratak u holler gdje trava raste
Bog Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako blizu
Da izbaci ovaj grad i naseljavanje
Ovde na periferiji
[Bridge]
Ja sam iznad svih ovih subota uveče
Nedostaju mi zvijezde u tvojim očima
[Chorus]
Bili smo odustali od brzeg života
Imajte nekoliko beba, podignite ih desno
Uzmi ih do rijeke, da ih krštavaju
Povratak u našem danu, ako bih samo ostao
Ne bih živio u ovom stanu
Druženje sa Haileyjem iz Toronta
Bog Svemogući, dušo, bili smo tako blizu
Da izbacimo gore, pusti korijenje dolje
Ovde na periferiji
