Someday - Steve Earle

There ain’t a lot that you can do in this town

Drive down to the lake and then you turn back around

Go to school so you can learn to read and write

So you can walk into that county bank and sign away your life

Well I work at the fillin' station on the interstate

Pumpin gasoline and countin' out of state plates

They ask me how far into Memphis, son, and where’s the nearest beer?

Hell they don’t even know that there’s a town around here

Someday I’m finally gonna let go

'Cause I know there’s a better way

I wanna know what’s over that rainbow

I’m gonna get out of here someday

My brother went to college 'cause he played football

But I’m still hangin' 'round 'cause I’m a little bit small

But I got me a '67 Chevy, she’s low and slick and black

Someday I’ll put her on that interstate and never look back

Someday I’m finally gonna let go

'Cause I know there’s a better way

I wanna know what’s over that rainbow

I’m gonna get out of here someday

Someday I’m finally gonna let go

'Cause I know there’s a better way

I wanna know what’s over that rainbow

I’m gonna get out of here someday

I’m gonna get out of here someday
