[Verse 1]
The city just ain't for me
I'm a willow tree blowin' in a mountain breeze
I feel lost in these busy streets
I need a sleepy backroad but the city never sleeps
I was raised off where the dirt road starts
Far from home and it's breakin' my heart
I miss my old friends, old ways
Everything about them old days

[Chorus]
And I'd trade (I'd trade) these four lanes for faded yellow paint
On some blacktop paved for two
I'd trade it all: the fast life
If it'd only lead me to you
And I'd run right through that city limit sign
In a short bed Ford headed right for the pines
I'd leave it all behind, this ain't me
Home is whеre I wanna be

[Verse 2]
A town like this won't gеt you far
Go 'head girl and grab those stars
Take all your scars and hit the road
I flew too fast and didn't miss a note
Now I'm starving for a taste of where I'm from
Up against something I can't outrun (Can't outrun)
Brought my past and what I've done along
[Chorus]
But I'd trade these four lanes for faded yellow paint
On some blacktop paved for two
I'd trade it all: the fast life
If it'd lead me to of you
And I'd run right through that city limit sign
In a short bed Ford headed right for the pines
I'd leave it all behind, this ain't me
Home is where I wanna be
Four lanes with faded yellow paint
On some blacktop paved for two
I'd trade it all: the fast life
If it would lead me to love you
And I'd run right through that city limit sign
In a short bed Ford headed right for the pines
I'd leave it all behind, this ain't me
Home is where I wanna be
Where I wanna be, mhm
