Nowhere Road
It's gonna get hotter before it cools down
Summer gets bad in a little southern town
Folks get mad and lose their temper
And it stays that way until the first of November
Power blacks out and the town gets dark
A man gets knifed for a cutting remark
So if you feel like you're about to explode
You can let it all out on Nowhere Road
If I could be anywhere in the world right now
I'd be on Nowhere Road
No-one could find me, no-one would care
But I'd be therе
Yes, I'd be therе
Nowhere Road, you can hide your face
Nowhere Road, where your secret is safe
But if you wanna get lost so no-one will know
Then Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Twenty-two men, every one of them armed
Looking to find the one who torched that barn
They don't call it revenge, just back-porch justice
And the women peek out to see what all the fuss is
Got a suspect hanging from a lower branch
Another face-down in a muddy trench
And the third shot dead in the cab of his Ford
Hard due north from Nowhere Road
If I could be anywhere in the world right now
I'd be on Nowhere Road
No-one could find me, no-one would care
But I'd be there
Yes, I'd be there
Nowhere Road, you can hide your face
Nowhere Road, where your secret is safe
But if you wanna get lost so no-one will know
Then Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Well, the preacher-man's daughter and the janitor's son
Had a dangerous romance, so they're on the run
Sneaking around to keep it on the sly
But her poppa found out, and they were caught in a lie
So they packed a little sack full of pictures and shirts
Said a hasty goodbye, as much as it hurts
No-one saw them disappear, 'cos they didn't even know
But I thought I saw 'em running down Nowhere Road
If I could be anywhere in the world right now
I'd be on Nowhere Road
No-one could find me, no-one would care
But I'd be there
Yes, I'd be there
Nowhere Road, you can hide your face
Nowhere Road, where your secret is safe
But if you wanna get lost so no-one will know
Then Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Nowhere Road, you can hide your face
Nowhere Road, where your secret is safe
But if you wanna get lost so no-one will know
Then Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Nowhere Road
Nowhere Road
But if you wanna get lost so no-one will know
Then Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Nowhere Road
Nowhere Road
Nowhere Road
Nowhere Road's where you gotta go
Nowhere Road
