Headed North Lyrics
[00:22.73] Well, they finally caught the guys who blew up those two police cars
[00:30.86] It was a couple college kids who thought the town was dumb as rocks
[00:38.01] Like we wouldn't raise an eyebrow at the sudden lack of bull-
[00:45.52] Too few parking tickets written, too few high school parties stopped
[00:53.05] Well, I always wish you well when I pass the old gas station
[01:00.81] With the banner on the front that shows how tolerant they are
[01:08.05] You'll get told to go to - by some summertime flatlander
[01:15.93] With a "coexistince" sticker on the bumper of their car
[01:23.08] And it's gone to - without you
[01:27.32] It was - before, but at least I had you
[01:31.74] No, there ain't nothin' to report
[01:35.83] But I hope you're bored and headed north
[01:40.97]
[01:55.84] I've been takin' your advice and tryin' to scream less at the tourists
[02:03.42] And I've been working on my timin' when I ask too much of you
[02:11.34] But if I see one more Cybertruck, I swear to God, I'm gonna floor it
[02:19.19] Need somebody here to talk me out of things I can't undo
[02:26.91] And it's gone to - without you
[02:31.29] It was - before, but at least I had you
[02:35.89] No, there ain't nothin' to report
[02:40.26] But I hope you're bored and headed north
[02:45.95]
[03:15.75] And it's gone to - without you
[03:20.20] It was - before, but at least I had you
[03:24.55] No, there ain't nothing to report
[03:28.92] But I hope you're bored and headed north
[03:35.50]
