[Verse 1]
My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walkin' and she took his name 'round here
There was dancing in the afternoons those days
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same
Love felt the same
[Refrain]
Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of somethin' better, yeah
'Round here
[Verse 2]
I hear my mama call in Kingsbury Park
Just me and David and a football that glowed in the dark
Waiting patiently to make my mark 'round here
And I remember my, my first day at school
And I remember trouble, and thinkin' I was so cool
I remember it all
(Oh, yeah) Like yesterday, don't you?
[Refrain]
Every time I try to leave this place
Somethin' inside says, "You can do better", yeah
'Round here
