This town doesnt understand
Two people makin dreams and plans
They say were much too young
In this town

This towns full of narrow minds
Cant see beyond the city limit signs
They close the bedroom blinds
In this town

Ive done some thinkin
And I realize
Theres more than dairy queen and friday nights
While were still young, weve gotta get away
Together we can make our break

Chorus:
From this town
Wordll get around
Two renegades escaped
No they couldnt keep us down
And this town
Will be a dime store memory
Baby I just know it
Theres a better place to be
Than this town
Oh this town

Now this towns got a factory
Not much future here for you and me
Its as far as they can see
In this town

Ive heard the wind blowin at my door
Voices tellin me theres so much more
Its easy to get bored
In this town

Ive just got to see those those city lights
Its time we spread our wings and learn to fly
Theyll never catch us if we disappear
Oh the interstate is much to near

Chorus:
Cant you just hear them talkin
Their righteous words
Burnin down the wire
What do we care what they think now
Thinkins not allowed... in this town

(chorus)
This town
This town
