nikki lane - woodruff city limit lyrics

[verse 1]
i was born in a mill town in 1983
same as those with my name that came before me
learned about pain before i learned to speak
watched my mama cryin’ every night until we’d flee

[post+chorus]
and i know i wouldn’t be the same if i’d’ve got stuck in it
woodruff city limit

[verse 2]
born under a bad sign in ’58
daredevil boy patched up with a metal plate
kept him alive, but it couldn’t keep him straight
he was a good man with a dark side and i grew to hate
[chorus]
woodruff city limit
i’ll be there in a minute
how many horses does this thing got in it?
got somewhere to be
said goodbye to my father
i was a good southern prodigal daughter
tryin’ to forget everything he taught her
except the old gibson he bought for me

[post+chorus]
and i know he wouldn’t be the same if he wasn’t stuck in it
woodruff city limit

[bridge]
every time he called, i dreaded pickin’ up the phone
were there voices in his head, or was he sittin’ there all alone?
well, maybe i’m just gettin’ things all wrong
but then i heard my sister’s voice sayin, “he’s gone”

[chorus]
woodruff city limit
i’ll be there in a minute
how many horses does this thing got in it?
got somewhere to be
said goodbye to my father
i was a good southern prodigal daughter
tryin’ to forget everything he taught her
except the old gibson he bought for me
[post+chorus]
and i wonder what it’s like for him, now that he’s no longer in it
bet he’s headed up to the sky sayin’, “good riddance!”
woodruff city limit

[outro]
