Lyrics Garth Brooks

Garth Brooks

Nobody Gets Off in This Town

Nobody gets off in this town

Trains don't even slow down

My high school sweetheart's married and gone

They met on a bus to San Antone

The Greyhound stops! Somebody gets on

But nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town

Old folks 'round here wear a frown

Now let me see if I can set the scene

It's a one-dog town and he's old and mean

There's one stop light but it's always green

Nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town

High school colors are brown

They can't drag Main because it kicks up dust

Their cars and their dreams are all starting to rust

The high school dances are always a bust

Nobody gets off in this town

Nobody gets off in this town

They oughta just tear it down

Cause in the winter you freeze and in the summer you fry

Utility bill's the only thing that gets high

I'd go for a drink but this county is dry

Nobody gets off

Nobody gets off

Nobody gets off in this square old merry-go-round

No, nobody gets off in this town
