Youâre the prettiest thing Iâve ever seen
And it ainât your words, but what I hear in between
You and me should hit the road, weâre bigger than this town
Canât let âem break us down
This old white Trans Am will set us free
Unlock our future with these silver keys
Portland, Seattle town, or go out Denver way
Maybe head down to LA
I know thereâs a whole new world for us to find
If we could just get past that Butte County Line
Donât you worry, Patty, Iâll get some cash
Got a cousin out in Gridley I can ask
I got a garbage bag out back, itâs full of cassette tapes
Soundtrack for our escape
My cousin Steve, he said heâd help us out
If I do this thing with him heâs talking about
I swear to you once this is through, oh the stories we will tell
And this whole town can go to hell
I know one day our stars will align
If we could just get past that Butte County Line
That night out at Thompson Flats a double cross went down
The cops showed up and beat us to the ground
They said we was the ones who shot a man on Montgomery Street
But I swear to you, it wasnât me
I swear, my love, it wasnât me
They say Iâm gonna be here for a while
At the end of May theyâre putting me on trial
There ainât a thing about this life that seems a one bit fair
Please wait for me out there
I know thereâs a whole new world for us to find
If we could just get past that Butte County Line
I know one day our stars will align
If we could just get past that Butte County Line
