County Road - Margo Price

Lyrics by：Margo Price

Composed by：Margo Price/Jeremy Ivey

Hey kid

Where ya goin' with those brand new wheels you got

You think you're gonna last forever

Forever says you're not

Won't you take me down

This gravel road and out a little ways

Forget about this prison town

These godd**n summer days

Ever since you went away

Well it's gotten bad 'round here

Sometimes I wanna see it burn

In my rear view mirror

You're so lucky you made it out

And you don't even know

But I still see your car driving up and down

County road

County road

County road

I've got this joint

Let's go get high and shoot a little dice

I'll pour some gin you can buy me in

Oh wouldn't that be nice

Ever since the storm came through

Well there's not much left to save

Developers they bought your house

They're gonna tear it down in May

Keep waking up from this nightmare dream

Time cuts like a knife

I wish I could have back

What I didn't know were the best years of my life

Maybe I'm lucky

I'm already dead and I don't even know

But I still see your headlights

Runnin' through the trees out on County road

County road

Remember when we got drunk that time in Ontario

Listening to Warren Zevon on the stereo

I keep thinking 'bout that very last night

When we went down to the bar

And even though you're no longer here

You'll never be that far

Hey kid

You know it's been three years since the change

The band broke up the boys don't talk

And the city's rearranged

No one's lucky and no one's saved

And no one really knows

Why it was you who had to go down

Like that out on County road

County road

Why it was you

Why it was you
