about
a song by and about my country alterego, dusty geets
lyrics
well i was drivin down on main street
soon as i got back to town
been doin time in deer county jail
god i missed my stompin ground
thought i’d swing by joe’s hardware
he’s always good for a laugh or two
pulled into the parkin lot
and i didn’t know what to do
there’s a chase there now
wow
well i road right past towards RJ’s gas
thinkin i should probably fill ‘er full
what do i see but that blue and white
overhangin the vestibule
now it seems no matter where i turn
nothin is as it was
the old town hall is a shoppin mall
and i don’t mean to cause a fuss
but there’s a chase hey
ex-wife’s better off without me
and the kids don’t know my face
my ridin mower’s rusted out
and my dog gave up the chase (he died)
i’d drive my dodge into dirt creek pond
let the water rise apace
but pow
there’s a chase there now
and it’s changin me WOW
got all fucked up cus i drank to much
got naked and torched the pier
the officer dragged me to the station wagon
said you’re goin away for years
now my only dream is by the time i’m free
it’ll all switch back to right
then as we pull up, cop says wait what
cus the prison’s nowhere in sight
there’s a chase there now
