[Verse 1]
Yea, the whole town came out to watch
The day the paved the parking lot
Somebody hung a ribbon up
And then they cut it down
[Verse 2]
And that big white rose upon that sign
Put innocence in all our lives
We could see its neon light
From half a mile out
[Verse 3]
Gas was .50 cents a gallon
They'd put it in for you
They'd bump your tires and check your oil
And wash your windows too
[Verse 4]
And We'd shine those cars bright as bright
We'd go park underneath that light
Stare out at the prairie sky
There was nothing else to do
[Pre-Chorus]
And now there's plywood for glass
Where the windows all got smashed
And there's just a chunk a'concrete
Where those old pumps used to stand
Yea, the whole town came out to watch
The day the paved the parking lot
Somebody hung a ribbon up
And then they cut it down
[Verse 2]
And that big white rose upon that sign
Put innocence in all our lives
We could see its neon light
From half a mile out
[Verse 3]
Gas was .50 cents a gallon
They'd put it in for you
They'd bump your tires and check your oil
And wash your windows too
[Verse 4]
And We'd shine those cars bright as bright
We'd go park underneath that light
Stare out at the prairie sky
There was nothing else to do
[Pre-Chorus]
And now there's plywood for glass
Where the windows all got smashed
And there's just a chunk a'concrete
Where those old pumps used to stand
