Small Town Heroes

She was the queen

She got all her drugs for free

She walked up to her daddy's door

He said,"You don't live here anymore"

She wanted love, wanted love

Oh, but she just couldn't get enough,enough

And my man, he wanders 'round

Well he lets all those young women down

And they say, 'Darling, oh, can't you stay?"

But he says, "Baby, already on my way"

They wanted love, wanted love

Oh, but they just couldn't get enough,enough

Well, all these people and all these things

Now what's the point in a wedding ring?

Cause we might not be here when next year comes

Well I guess you gotta watch your back and carry a gun

Oh Baby girl, where did you go?

I threw you out where the cold wind blows

Are you in the Vidalia with your no-good mom?

I just couldn't watch you stick it in your arm

You wanted love, wanted love

Oh, but I just couldn't give enough,enough

From the boogie-down to Bowling Green

I rode the night train to infinity

I tempted fate and I acted smart

I grew some callous on my heart

I wanted love, wanted love

Oh, but I just couldn't give enough, enough

Well, all these places, yeah all these towns

Now what's the point in settling down?

Cause we might not be here when next year comes

So you better live it like you're on the run
