Vestavia Hills

You're working too hard

Or you're living too fast

Hands over your eyes with a foot on the gas

And the best I can tell

The crowd seems ashamed

It sounds like a warning when they call out your name

The boy genius is grown now

The competition got fierce

And you'd rather be anywhere other than here

But it can get so much worse

And I reckon it will

In Vestavia Hills

Last night was a long one

You made a lot of new friends

And your band was on fire right up till the end

You met a girl from the suburbs

But you missed all the cues

I bet you don't remember me tying your shoes

The boy genius is grown now

And you're an angry young man

Well, I won't be around when you die in the van

I got kids of my own

Not much of a will

In Vestavia Hills

This run is my last one

I gotta get off the road

I gotta get my mind back in the family mode

And I wish you the best, son

I've seen worse do alright

You're at war with your heart and you're too weak to fight

The boy genius is grown now

Your dreams all came true

And now you're left with nothing but damage to do

Well, I've got dreams of my own

And my wife pays the bills
