Oh country roads
Swerving, singing along to the Roustabouts
I'll never forget where I came from
Misdirected youth passionately devout to the city I hold dearly
But everyone talks shit about
And I hear talks about leaving
Me, I never wanted out
I'd rather stay and make something out of this town
We'll write our names in gasoline and burn them into the world
Never thinking about what we would become
We were young impressionable kids
We didn't know any better, didn't know any better than this
And our dreams, they were our future
And as far as I can see
We'll be whatever we choose to be
We'll shake our fists in the morning sun
Singing glory, glory, hallelujah
I would give anything to feel the way I did back then
Well I hear talks about leaving
But I never wanted out
I'd rather stay and make something out of this town
Write our names in gasoline and burn them into the world
Never thinking about what we would become
We were young impressionable kids
We didn't know any better, didn't know any better than this
And our dreams, they were our future
And as far as I can see
We'll be whatever we choose to be
We'll be whatever we choose to be
We were young impressionable kids
We didn't know any better, didn't know any better than this
And our dreams, they were our future
And as far as I can see
We'll be whatever we choose to be
We'll be whatever we choose to be
We'll be whatever we choose to be
