[Verse 1]
You never did care too much for this two lane town, did you, babe?
You've been talking 'bout getting out, chasing them dreams down since seventh grade
And I can't blame you for the way God made you
You need more skyline than a water tower with your name on it
And I need more Chevrolet with a little bit of red dirt clay on it
And that's just you and that's just me
And that's just the way it's gotta be

[Chorus]
Yeah, the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
Little rough around the edges like that rusty barbed wire
Baby, I know that ain't your speed
That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave
You need more stations on your radio
Them kind of places where the corn don't grow
Baby, I love you, but we both got dreams
That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave

[Verse 2]
We had a good run under that Southern sun, didn't we?
And you can call me up, and I'll fill you in if you're missing this town and me
I need a front porch view, but you need a balcony and
No matter what, you know where I'll be
[Chorus]
Where the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
Little rough around the edges like that rusty barbed wire
Baby, I know that ain't your speed
That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave
You need more stations on your radio
Them kind of places where the corn don't grow
Baby, I love you, but we both got dreams
That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, that's why I can't leave

[Outro]
Yeah, the main street's slow like them old tractor tires
Little rough around the edges like that rusty barbed wire
Baby, I know that ain't your speed
That's why your daddy's out there loading up your Jeep
Yeah, them Friday night lights ain't your kinda shine
Wish I could, but I can't say it ain't mine
Little town like this, what you get is what you see
That's why you can't stay, that's why I can't leave
No, I can't leave
