Lyrics:

Podunk

Keith Anderson/Tom Hambridge/Jeffrey Steele (ASCAP)/(BMI)



Same Saturday night, same ol' crowd

Draggin' Main to the Safeway then turn back around

'Til curfew and then head down to the river's edge and get drunk

Ain't nothing new, what else you gonna do out in Podunk



Well I knew this six string was my ticket out

No flashin' red light was gonna slow me down

18 years old everything that I owned in the back of that truck

I put a dip in my mouth and I headed straight outta Podunk



1st Chorus

Goodbye, daddy looked me in the eye said go where you gotta go

But don't forget to call home

And momma cried keep Jesus in your life and I hugged her one last time

And then I headed down the road in a dusty cloud of smoke

Out of Podunk



Bridge

A lot of years gone by showin' on my face

Nothing in this life that time hasn't changed

I chased a lot of dreams and some of them came true

Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from is the place I'm runnin' to



Another Saturday night singin' to the same ol' crowd

Still playin' this six-string but things are different now

I met one of them girls turn your whole world around girls

And wouldn't you know it

We got our eyes on a house 'bout a hundred miles south

Out in Podunk



2nd Chorus

Goodbye, her daddy looked me in the eye

And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home

And her momma cried said keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time

Then we headed down that road to start a family of our own

Out in Podunk



Repeat 2nd Chorus 2x
