• • • • Wipe
the footprints
off my dash
Tore up those sun
faded photographs
Threw 'em in the wind
Ya'll can have 'em back
I'm outta here
I stuck my
middle finger
up in the sky
Flipped off that
ya'll come back sign
Looked in the mirror
one last time
and watched
it disappear
It ain't nothin' but
a rearview town
Broken hearts
and rusted plows
Roots ripped right up
out of the ground
Never thought
I'd ever leave it
It ain't nothin'
what it used to be
Population minus me
On the other side
of that dust cloud
ain't nothin' but
a rearview town
I could tough it out
but what's the use
A place that small
it's hard to do
Too much of her
to run into
and so much road
to somewhere new
It ain't nothin' but
a rearview town
Broken hearts
and rusted plows
Roots ripped right up
out of the ground
Never thought
I'd ever leave it
It ain't nothin'
what it used to be
Population minus me
On the other side
of that dust cloud
ain't nothin' but
a rearview town
• • • • It ain't nothin'
but yesterday
One less truck
rollin' down Main
Ain't nothin' left to say
It ain't nothin'
what it used to be
Population minus me
On the other side
of that dust cloud
ain't nothin' but
a rearview town...
Ain't nothin' but
a rearview town
