The Girl I Left Behind

Lyrics
[Verse 1] It ain't much different out here I found It's just different names for the same old hillbilly towns Welcome signs for the shotgun homes Familiar faces in the same old rows [Chorus] With every cafe corner diner It's the same old story to some old timer Rundown tavern on a dim lit street I'd see my old friends in everybody I'd meet The only thing missin' that I can't seem to find Is the girl I left behind [Verse 2] There's been a few that have caught me a little off guard I try to fool myself but I just can't fool my heart Every pretty green-eyed girl I see Gets me further away from where I want to be [Chorus] Summertime tailgate, road-side stands Sellin' home grown tomatoes and strawberry jam Little white churches and country stores Every town's just like the one before The only thing missin' that I can't seem to find Is the girl I left behind me [Bridge] Standin' on her momma's front porch Wavin' through the black smoke rollin' outta that old Ford Take me to some backwards town Wishin' I had you But you're nowhere to be found [Chorus] Every cafe corner diner It's the same old story to some old timer Rundown tavern on a dim lit street I'd see my old friends in everybody I meet Summertime tailgate, road-side stands Sellin' home grown tomatoes and strawberry jam Little white churches and country stores Every town's just like the one before The only thing missin' that I can't seem to find Yeah, The only thing missin' that I can't seem to find Is the girl I left behind
