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 lays all those young women down
And they say, "Darling, oh, can't you stay?"
And he says, "Baby, 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
Now what's the point in a wedding ring?
'Cause we might not be here when next year comes
Well I guess you gotta 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?
I just couldn't watch you stick it in your arm
You wanted love, wanted love
Oh, but I just couldn't give enough, enough
From the boogie-down to Bowling Green
I rode the night train to infinity
Well 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, yeah all these towns
What's the point in settling down?
'Cause we might not be here when next year comes
So you better live it like you're on the run
