There ain't a lot that you can do in this town
You drive down to the lake and then you 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
Now I work at the fillin' station on the interstate
I'm Pumpin' gasoline and countin' out of state plates
They ask me how far into Memphis son, and where's the nearest beer
And they don't even know that there's a town around here
Someday I'm finally gonna let go
Because I know there's a better way
And I wonder what's over that rainbow
I'm gonna get out of here someday
Someday
Now my brother went to college 'cos he played football
Well I'm still hangin' round 'cos I'm a little bit small
Well I got me a 67 chevy she's low and sleek and black
Someday I'll put her on the inner state and never look back
Someday I'm finally gonna let go
Because I know there's a better way
And I wonder what's over that rainbow
And I'm gonna get out of here someday
I'm gonna get out of here someday
Someday
Someday
