Middle Of America

Jessie told her mama, she's gonna be out late
But she ain't comin' home at all
Tyler's gettin' new ink out at that little place
Down by the old strip mall
Somebody's gonna get drunk, somebody's gonna get lucky
Tomorrow there's gonna be talk
But it'll be alright, it's just another night
In the middle of America

We're lettin' our freedom ring
Chasin' these small town dreams
Doin' what our parents did
Watchin' them shake their heads
Thinkin' we've all gone crazy lately
But we know it'll be alright
It's just another night
In the middle of America

Brandon just got back, two years in Iraq
They're throwin' him a party tonight
Lindsay's home cryin'
'Cause she caught Travis in another one of his damn lies
Yeah, Billy and the band, they're settin' up their amps and
Playin' for beer in that little dive
But it'll be alright, it's just another night
In the middle of America

We're lettin' our freedom ring
Chasin' these small town dreams
Doin' what our parents did
Watchin' them shake their heads
Thinkin' we've all gone crazy lately
But we know it'll be alright
It's just another night
In the middle of America

Yeah, we're bustin' our asses
Yeah, we're raisin' our glasses
Ain't afraid to get aloud
When the sun goes down round here
But we know it'll be alright
It's just another night
In the middle of America

We're lettin' our freedom ring
Chasin' these small town dreams
Doin' what our parents did
Watchin' them shake their heads
Thinkin' this whole world's crazy lately
But we know it'll be alright
As it's just another night
In the middle of America
Everybody, it'll be alright
It's just another night
In the middle of America
