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 And my man, he wanders 'round He lets all those young women down And they say, 'Baby, oh, can't you stay?" And he says, "Darling, already on my way" They wanted love, wanted love Oh, but they just couldn't get enough Well, all these people and all these things What's the point in a wedding ring? We might not be here when next year comes You better watch your back and carry a gun Baby girl, where did you go? I threw you out where the cold wind blows Are you in Vidalia with your no-good mom? Just couldn't watch you stick it in your arm I wanted love, wanted love Oh, but I just couldn't give 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, and all these towns What's the point in settling down? We might not be here when next year comes You better live it like you're on the run
