Red ribbons hang in a tennessee square
Old people laughing and singing and dancing down there
I?d like to join them, I got no money to spare
So I sit here and watch from the porch
Drinkin whiskey in granddaddy?s chair.
Ferris wheel lights look like pictures I?d seen in a book somewhere
Vacant parking lots across the street remind me I?m going nowhere
I?d like to join ?em, I got no money to spare
So I sit here and I watch from the porch
Drinkin whiskey in granddaddy?s chair

It?s difficult to go on knowing you?re out there somewhere
Vacant parking lots across the street remind me I?m going nowhere.
