We Want You Back

Country music, a steel guitar

Five dollar bill to fill up your car

That part of history, folks like me

We want you back

Bottles of coke made from glass

NASCARs running those old short tracks

Like my hometown, North Wilkesboro Speedway

After church on Sunday, we want you back

Yeah, back in this town to stay

One more try having good ol' days

We won't make the same mistakes

It's a shame we have to ask

Cause the things we had back then

Yeah, we damn sure took for granted

Now we see just what we had

We want you back

A parking spot at the drive-in show

A rod and reel at the fishing hole with granddad

Yeah, little things like that

We want you back

An old John Wayne still giving them hell

And mom-n-pop stores doing well

And small town U.S.A. ain't the same

Since the four lane came

And we want you back

Yeah, back in this town to stay

One more try having good ol' days

We won't make the same mistakes

It's a shame we have to ask

Cause the things we had back then

Yeah, we damn sure took for granted

Now we see just what we had

We want you back

Yeah, some things are gone for good

And some are long left in the past

But the good Lord proved the best things

Can make their way on back

Yeah, back in this town to stay

One more try having good ol' days

We won't make the same mistakes

It's a shame we have to ask

Cause the things we had back then

Yeah, we damn sure took for granted

Now we see just what we had

Yeah, we see just what we had

We want you back

We want you back

We want you back
