lyrics
This town has got one traffic light It's always stuck on red I've packed my suitcase every night And slid it 'neath the bed Mama says they all come back She's keeping supper warm Honey, check the almanac I'm leaving like a storm Watch me go, watch me go In heels too high for this old town Watch me go, watch me go I'm done being toned down Watch me go, watch me go I'll wave from every silver screen Watch me go, watch me go That exit sign's my favorite green The diner keeps my order hot The choir keeps my key This town gave everything it's got It just ain't built for me One day they'll put my picture up At the diner by the till "She used to drink from this chipped cup" God willing, yes they will Watch me go, watch me go That exit sign's my favorite green Gone, gone, gone Prettiest green I've ever seen
