[Verse 1]
Well I was born in the valley of the Cape Fear River
'Bout a thirty-minute drive to the south of Virginia
A north star of this great state
At least that's what the sign said
[Verse 2]
In a town where you either had or you didn't
My daddy worked a seven-to-five just to give me
A fighting chance to make it out
And not end up like him
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I ain't the man
Half the man my Daddy was
Half the man he wanted me to be
[Chorus]
So I packed up, cashed my chips and pointed that car east
No idea where I was going, anywhere but here’d worked for me
Somehow I still think I made him proud
Just by getting out
[Verse 3]
You either get locked up or you join the corps
You work the grill at Pete's Burgers and more
You buy a map and pick a spot
Drive as fast as you can
