All I Can Do is Write About It

This life that I lived has took me everywhere

There ain't no place I ain't never gone

Well it's kind of like the sayin'

That you heard so many times

There just ain't no place like home

Well have you ever seen a she-gator protect her youngin's

Or fish in a river swimmin' free

Have you ever seen the beauty of the hills of Carolina

Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee

And Lord I can't make any changes

All I can do is write 'em in a song

And I can see the concreter slowly creepin'

Lord take me and mine before that comes

Now I ain't tryin' to put down no big city

But the things they write about us suggest a pull

Well you can take a boy out of the 'ol heartland, Lord

But you'll never take a heart from a boy

And Lord I can't make any changes

Well all I can do is write 'em in a song

And I can see the concreter slowly creepin'

Lord take me and mine before that comes

Well I can see the concreter slowly creepin'

Lord take me and mine before that comes, yeah
