Take one last look in that rear view on your way
                C                                  D
Outta that stick around town you're about to leave behind

Be someone you've never been

But every now and then...


[Chorus]
            G
Call your mama
                                  D
Sit and listen to her small town drama
                                      C
And get you all caught up on all your sisters and your brothers

            C        G                     D
And if they both say yes then first things first
