whiskeytown - jacksonville skyline lyrics

Loading...

the banks of the river run through my hometown
as a boy, ran dirt roads, and i scr-ped my knees
well they paved the roads eventually
with neon signs and car dealerships and diners

the soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends
i saw the pretty women as i walked through town

well, i moved away soon as i turned sixteen
figured i was old enough to go and work a job
well i floated down main street, pools of car lights
overcame me, wishing i was still back home

the soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends
i saw the pretty women as i walked through town

well, jacksonville’s a city with a hopeless streetlight
seems like you’re lucky if it ever change from red to green
i was born in an abundance of inherited sadness
and .50 cent picture frames bought at a five and dime

i ended up a soldier on the weekend
looking for a vacancy i wasn’t able to find
somewhere the night sky hangs like a blanket
shoot it with my cap gun just to make it
seem like stars
