[Verse 1]
Ever since I was a young boy
I had a wandering soul
I walked and crawled across six state lines
By the time I was 8 years old
And landed in some cornfield
They called a town on the grow
So I climbed up on that water tower man
But the city was a no show
And that’s when I spied you and we didn’t mind
All night truck stops, drive-ins, dives
We were teenage troubadours hopping on boxcars for a hell of a one-way ride
[Chorus]
It’s just a Waffle House jukebox
My brains are scattered around
But one of these days you and me babе
We’re gonna spill the wholе bucket
And paint this town
Paint this town
[Verse 2]
Paint it red and white for Old Glory
Paint it blue for the cops tailing your old man’s Ford
Shimmy up them power lines and paint some anarchy signs
Cause that’s what you do when you’re 15 years old
We’ll paint it yellow for a warning
They’ll never take us alive
Now we’ve given our hearts to this heartbreak city
Where farm kids go to make out or die
Ever since I was a young boy
I had a wandering soul
I walked and crawled across six state lines
By the time I was 8 years old
And landed in some cornfield
They called a town on the grow
So I climbed up on that water tower man
But the city was a no show
And that’s when I spied you and we didn’t mind
All night truck stops, drive-ins, dives
We were teenage troubadours hopping on boxcars for a hell of a one-way ride
[Chorus]
It’s just a Waffle House jukebox
My brains are scattered around
But one of these days you and me babе
We’re gonna spill the wholе bucket
And paint this town
Paint this town
[Verse 2]
Paint it red and white for Old Glory
Paint it blue for the cops tailing your old man’s Ford
Shimmy up them power lines and paint some anarchy signs
Cause that’s what you do when you’re 15 years old
We’ll paint it yellow for a warning
They’ll never take us alive
Now we’ve given our hearts to this heartbreak city
Where farm kids go to make out or die
