[Verse 1]
There ain't a lot that you can do in this town
Drive down to the lake and turn back around
You go to school and you learn to read and write
So you can walk into the county bank and sign away your life

[Verse 2]
I work at the fillin' station on the interstate
Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates
And they ask me "How far into Memphis girl
And where's the nearest beer?"
And they don't even know that there's a town around here

[Chorus]
Someday I'm finally gonna let go
I know there's a better way
And I wanna know what's over that rainbow
I'm gonna get out of here someday
Someday

[Verse 3]
Now my brother went to college 'cause he plays football
Me, I never even got through high school at all
But I got me a '67 Chevy, she's low and sleek and black
Someday I'll put her on that interstate and never look back
[Chorus]
Someday I'm finally gonna let go
I know there's a better way
I wanna know what's over that rainbow
I'm gonna get out of here some—
I'm gonna get out of here someday
Someday

[Outro]
Someday
Someday
