V.1
I come from a loser town established before they shut the 84 Lumber down
Joe Kelley selling them drugs out the back, always seemed like a nice guy, no skeletons out back
Before Brian Maxwell drove his pickup through town, then through a trailer down at the camping ground
Officer Mathis chased him ‘til 3am, ‘til Brian’s rich daddy bailed him out again
Chorus:
We all come from a loser town
Just look a little harder when you’re walking around
Junkie on the corner asking me for a light, neighbor’s kid almost hit me with his damn dirtbike
Crazy Kevin just got thrown out the bar door, got into his Jeep, pedal to the floor
Jimmy n’ his wife in the great lawn fight, front row tickets on a Saturday night
There’s something romantic in and throughout this town, observe the tragedy all around
Chorus
Old Ben sold his love for a car, a ’71 Dodge with a Hurst on the floor
As rusty as his heart - fast as his temper – the closest thing he’s had to love, I would wager
A sports hero drunk at A.J.’s bar, dashing all hopes he’d ever get far
Mathis ain’t walking a straight line, beat Steven so hard he about went blind
Locals here throw their beer bottles out the window, preacher’s wife is a notorious nympho
Rebel flag above Jack’s garage, they’re drunk off their asses in the local lodge
