lirik lagu mary chapin carpenter – i am a town (orchestral version)
[verse 1]
i’m a town in carolina
i’m a detour on a ride
for a phone call and a soda, i’m a blur from the driver’s side
i’m the last gas for an hour if you’re going twenty~five
i am texaco and tobacco
i am dust you leave behind
i am peaches in september, corn from a roadside stall
i’m the language of the natives, i’m a cadence and a drawl
i’m the pines behind the graveyard
and the cool beneath their shade
where the boys have left their beer cans
i am weeds between the graves
my porches sag and lean with old black men and children
my sleep is filled with dreams, i never can fulfill them
i am a town
[verse 2]
i am a church beside the highway where the ditches never drain
i’m a baptist like my daddy and jesus knows my name
i am memory and stillness, i am lonely in old age
i am not your destination
i am clinging to my ways
i am a town
[verse 3]
i’m a town in carolina
i am billboards in the fields
i’m an old truck up on cinder blocks, missing all my wheels
i am pabst blue ribbon, american, and ‘southern serves the south’
i am tucked behind the jaycees sign, on the rural route
i am a town
i am a town
i am a town, southbound
