Nothing ever happens in Monticello Let’s give a hand for the land of buried dreams Cause when you hang your hat in Monticello You end up like your dad And it’s really as sad as it seems
Carol at the diner tried to be a singer Mark still swears he’ll end up on TV Everyone has plans for something greater But they never leave town They just let themselves drown But I won’t be pulled down Not Me
Someday I’ll pack up my things and move on Move on One day They’ll come looking for me I’ll be gone I’ll be gone I’m gonna ditch this life and never return And I won’t look back Because I’ll finally learn How it feels to be under a limitless sky I’m gonna kiss Indiana goodbye
I’ll give my two weeks notice at the Rite Aid I’ll sell my baseball cards to make some cash I’ll leave a note for mom that says “I love you.” And I’ll be gone with no trace I’ll be out of this place in a flash I’ll start by heading west on Highway 80 Hit every Steak’n’Shake on the way I’ll drive a couple days Until I end up in California Then find fortune and fame Receive massive acclaim They’ll wonder how I became the toast of LA
Someday I’ll pack up my things and move on Move on One day They’ll come looking for me I’ll be gone I’ll be gone I’m gonna ditch this life and never return And I won’t look back Because I’ll finally learn How it feels to be handed my piece of the pie I’m gonna kiss Indiana goodbye
I know this might sound crazy But I’m not like other people And though settling for less is fine for some If I keep treading water here I nowhere Indiana I know exactly who I will become
Maybe this whole plan seems just a bit unrealistic But I’m not saying I could leave today I’ll stay a couple years And save enough to really do this That’s when I’ll see What more I can be
Someday I’ll pack up my things and move on Move on One day real soon they’ll come looking for me I’ll be gone I’ll be gone I refuse to stay and act like it’s fine You can keep this life Because it sure isn’t mine I can’t wait around until the day that I die I won’t miss you Indiana I’m gonna kiss you goodbyeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
