I don't want you around no more.

No I ain't going to hang around.
I gotta hit the road.
See just how far a tank of gas will go. So, since k of living in this town.
Yes, I'm sick of hanging around this dead horse town.

Like Joe Dirt, I need to fill that hole inside my heart right now.

Yeah I'm ready to get my journey on.
Life is a highway. I wanna ride on one now. Be it Route 66 or That Lincoln highway, I wanna try it somehow.

I can't take you with me, I must sailor alone.

Please don't be mad or sad. This is just something I gotta do.

Just me, the highway, and some Eddie Money on the radio.

Driving the rest of my life away and, doing it my way.

Because I'm going to go do or die.
Yes, I'm going bye bye baby bye bye.

Prettiest girl I've ever known. I'd like to make her my own. You could be my queen sitting on a throne. Slim and slender walking along. Looking like a model on a magazine alone. I had a chance once and didn't take it. That's a fate that I hate. Oh girl, your so fine. Oh how I wish you were mine.

You turn me on, like remote control.
You turn me on, like a key in a switch.
You turn me on, like battery in kids toy.

In the mornings when I'm drinking my coffee. You just walk past me looking and smelling so fine.
When I'm watching my TV. The news is good when I see you coming my way, honey those newscasters ain't got nothing on you.
I just love the way you turn me on.

You turn me on when walking in my direction.
You turn me on, like flick of a switch.
You turn me on, like the push of a button.
You turn me on, like the twist of a knob.
You turn me on, yeah I love the way you turn me on.
Whenever you start moving.

With the sway of your body, you turn me on. When you lean in to kiss me. You turn me on.
Oh, I love how you turn me on.

You turn me on, like twisting a lever.
You turn me on, just like the old clapper. You turn me on walking toward me. You turn me on, that's what I'm saying.

Yeah pretty lady, you know you turn me on.

You turn me on, Luke the push of a button. You turn me on, like starting a car. You turn me on, like turning a valve. Honey I just love the way you turn me on.

I saw a picture in our local paper today. A picture of a man I didn't know at all. I read about his life's story. Then, a song came into my mind. A song about being famous when you die in small town America.

Well you know, not everyone will die famous in a small town.

Just like this man I was reading about in this paper, He did not die famous. As I continued to read about him I found that he had been born during the dust bowl and, had grown up during the great depression. I read where he'd given his toy's as a boy for the war effort in World War two. I continued on to read about his service to the country in Korea. No, not everyone dies famous in a small town.

Hey!, not everyone dies famous in a small town. Not everyone wishes for fame and fortune or to live their life in the spotlight.

Choosing instead to live in the shadow's away from the limelight. No, not everyone dies famous in a small town. Yeah, people come and go without much fanfare. Not everybody will die famous in this small town.

As I read further, I discovered this man came back from that old war to settle down and live quietly in the same small town. He opened a little hardware store in the middle of downtown. Selling to the working folks he kept his family fed. You know not everyone will die famous in my small town.

Turns out he had to close up the hardware store in the 80's. A victim of the big box store's. He went on to build houses for the poor in different parts of the country. I had lived in one of those places myself. I never knew he had built it! Not everyone dies famous in a small town.

As I kept on reading I found out about how he had given himself to a higher calling late in life. This man led many youths to a relationship with the lord. Not everyone dies four in a small town.

Not everyone has a famous history. Choosing to to live the quiet life in obscurity. Not everyone dies famous in a small town. Folks live and die with out much being said. Not everyone dies famous in a small town.

I read about how his wife had passed years ago and. This man Han raised three children alone. Yet, I didn't even know him. Not every one will die famous in a small town. Turns out children in the community including their own referred to them as grandma and grandpa. No, not everyone dies famous in a small town.

It's been a couple of weeks since I saw that article about him. Now, as I sit here again reading yet another small town newspaper, I read about another small town person passing on silently. I'm informed about her transformation from the big city to the small town. About how she came from wealth and fame to live in that small town. Not everyone dies famous in any small town.

Despite being rich, she sought refuge in a small town. She made her life of riches into a life on a small town. I read about her life on the farm and, how she fed the community from that small town farm. Not everyone dies famous in a small town. Selling beans and potatoes from a roadside stand to pay her bills, how many passed by and bought her goods. Not everyone dies famous in a small town.

I read about her buying toys for kids for Christmas. How many played with one of them? Not all of us die famous in a small town.

So, next time you hear a song about somebody doing famous in a small town, just remember this. Not everyone will die famous in a small town. People come and go without much attention. Choosing a life of solitude over 15 seconds of fame. No, not everyone dies famous in a small town. No, not everyone dies famously in a small town.

Well, that lady is dead and gone now with no next of kin. Yet, she was rich beyond money. In her golden years she retired to a peaceful life on her farm. Alone but, that's what she wanted . So, the next time you hear that song just think about those who live in silence. Not everyone dies famous in a small town.

Choosing instead to make a life in quiet tranquility yeah, not all of us want to die famous in a small town. Most of us will pass without any hopla. Keeping out of the limelight not everyone will die famous in a small town.

Hey you know not everyone dies famous in a small town.

Why you treating me this way?
Why you treating me so bad darling?

So I had a few drinks with an old freind last night? What was wrong with that?

She was a young and pretty thing, a young girl come of age. She was interested in me from a young age. All we did was get a couple of cocktails, nothing more happened.

I'll admit it was a foolish mistake, I should've known better than to do something like that. After all she's the one to blame for that.

It's hard to be humble they say. For me it's getting harder everyday.

You know I've done things like this before. I'm sure it will happen some more.

Lately it's been hard for us to get along. I long for the days when we we went out for a night on the town. Now it looks like those days are gone.

Oh well, I'll write it down in song.
Seems like our marriage is going down.

Why oh why you treating me this way oh lord why you treating me this way?

So I looked at that gals bottom? Is that a big deal? Well, I don't think so.

Why you treat me so bad?
Oh please tell me why you treat me this way?

You gotta understand simethings missing. You don't want me to hold you anymore. In fact, we don't even talk to each other anymore.

Yes, I sent her a text. You don't act like you care anymore. At least she will talk to me. And yes, I've held her in my arms. You just don't want me that I know.

I would love for you to hold me once more. So I wouldn't look somewhere else to score. She doesn't mean anything to me. Just give me a chance and you will see.

Oh, lord why are you so angry with me? Why you treating me this way?
Tell me why you treating me this way?

As I was walking in the woods one day the Devil came up in his usual way.

He fed me a bunch of lies. Telling my I wasn't worthy of God's love. Saying my faith doesn't measure up. Told me I'd be better off just to end it all.

But that's when my lord stepped in letting him know he couldn't touch me because I was saved from him. He said Devil he's saved from sin and he held me in the palm of his hand.

Then the Lord gave me a song to sing whenever Satan came along. So, everytime he sneaks up on me I can start to sing this song.

Get away get away from me all your accusations are history and they're under the blood..and I dont have to struggle anymore god's given me something to even the score.

My saviors gave me a song to sing telling the truth to Satan and his Demon gang. Get away get away you can't sway me the lord my god has saved me. So, get away get away I've got a song to sing.

Yeah get away get away I ain't gonna listen to you lies no more. Yes sir go away from here Jesus is here with me on this sphere.

Get away get away don't you show your face no more. Just go and get away and please don't come back no more.

Get away get away get away from here. In the end God's truth prevails keeping me safe from your evil snair.

Get away get away dark lord cause I ain't got time for your lies. I look up into the skies. The lord has saved me from your lair.

So get awY get away don't come round no more. Go far far away and stay away from here.

Yes, leave here now yes, just go away.

She hunts down by the bar. Then she takes them out to her car. Drives a little way but, not to far. There's a motel around the block that's where she'll play. She only wants them for a day. When the evening comes then she's done. Going on to another for more fun.

Oh she's loved a lot in her time. Let me tell you something boy don't let her get into your head. Oh she has the looks and she don't mind.

Oh yea she's loved a lot in her time.
