Intro
Verse 1
In a town where what you know, Don't make you who you are
It all comes down the the car you drive
Whether your a mustang, or a chevorlet man
If you don't know now you better start chosen' your side
'Cus every friday night, I take her up town
And line her up on South scale street
It looks like a parade, on Independence day
With your homecoming bride in the passenger seat
Chorus
We were too young to know, what this town had in store
And we were too much in love to give a god damn
And with expectations high, its always do or die
It seems like our fate's already been sealed
In reids--ville
Verse 2
When I turned 18, I sold that car
Traded wheels for a wedding band
A plymouth hunter green, big block with 3 on the tree
And every nut and bolt turned by these 2 hands
It was a good start, then things just got so hard
Where the hell'd we fall off track
Now I work for her dad, and the pay it ain't half bad
Keeps a roof on her head and the bank off my back
Chorus
We were too young to know, what this town it had in store
And we were too much in love to give a god damn
And with expectations high, its always do or die
It seems like our fate's already been sealed
In reids--ville
Verse 3
That girl of mine, how here eyes they used to shine
Like two rare stones set out on display
We were wild and we were young, and we could take on anyone
Now here eyes are darker than a funeral serenade
I'd burn it down, every square inch of this town
Just to see one more smile on her face
When it comes my day to die, I wanna look God in the eyes
And ask him why he gave up on this place
Chorus
'Cus we were too young to know, what this town had in store
And we were too much in love to give a god damn
And with expectations high, its always do or die
It seems like our fates already been sealed
In reids--ville
