Lyrics The only time I got to prayin' for a red light Was when I saw your destination as a deadline "This is normal conversation, babe, it's all fine" Makin' quiet calculations where the fault lies This is good land, or at least it was It takes a strong hand and a sound mind The college kids are gettin' so young, ain't they? They're correctin' all the grammar on a spray paint And I even gave up drivin' after nightfall I got tired of the frat boys with their brights on This is good land, or at least it was It takes a strong hand and a sound mind It makes me smile to know when things get hard Ooh, you'll be far Ooh, you'll be far from here And while I clean shit up in the yard Ooh, you'll be far Ooh, you'll be far, far from here So, pack up your car, put a hand on your heart Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are We ain't angry at you, love You're the greatest thing we've lost The birds will still sing, your folks will still fight The boards will still creak, the leaves will still die We ain't angry at you, love We'll be waitin' for you, love And we'll all be here forever And we'll all be here forever We sure will We're overdue for a revival We spent so long just gettin' by That's the thing about survival Who the hell, who the hell likes livin' just to die? You told me you would make a difference Well, I got drunk and shut you down It won't be by your own volition If you step foot outside this town But it's all we've had For always So, pack up your car, put a hand on your heart Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are We ain't angry at you, love You're the greatest thing we've lost The birds will still sing, your folks will still fight The boards will still creak, the leaves will still die We ain't angry at you, love We'll be waitin' for you, love And we'll all be here forever And we'll all be here forever You're gonna go far You're gonna go far You're gonna go far You're gonna go far Yes, you are (ooh) If you wanna go (go) far Then you gotta go (go) far

Lyrics
The only time I got to prayin' for a red light
Was when I saw your destination as a deadline
"This is normal conversation, babe, it's all fine"
Makin' quiet calculations where the fault lies
This is good land, or at least it was
It takes a strong hand and a sound mind
The college kids are gettin' so young, ain't they?
They're correctin' all the grammar on a spray paint
And I even gave up drivin' after nightfall
I got tired of the frat boys with their brights on
This is good land, or at least it was
It takes a strong hand and a sound mind
It makes me smile to know when things get hard
Ooh, you'll be far
Ooh, you'll be far from here
And while I clean shit up in the yard
Ooh, you'll be far
Ooh, you'll be far, far from here
So, pack up your car, put a hand on your heart
Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are
We ain't angry at you, love
You're the greatest thing we've lost
The birds will still sing, your folks will still fight
The boards will still creak, the leaves will still die
We ain't angry at you, love
We'll be waitin' for you, love
And we'll all be here forever
And we'll all be here forever
We sure will
We're overdue for a revival
We spent so long just gettin' by
That's the thing about survival
Who the hell, who the hell likes livin' just to die?
You told me you would make a difference
Well, I got drunk and shut you down
It won't be by your own volition
If you step foot outside this town
But it's all we've had
For always
So, pack up your car, put a hand on your heart
Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are
We ain't angry at you, love
You're the greatest thing we've lost
The birds will still sing, your folks will still fight
The boards will still creak, the leaves will still die
We ain't angry at you, love
We'll be waitin' for you, love
And we'll all be here forever
And we'll all be here forever
You're gonna go far
You're gonna go far
You're gonna go far
You're gonna go far
Yes, you are (ooh)
If you wanna go (go) far
Then you gotta go (go) far
