She don't like him talkin to blondes Girls in town ain't used to men like John Another waitress sets him up for free Ain't that good lookin but he sure knows what to say Yeah he's got a voice like a tuxedo and pink champagne When he speaks his heart it sounds so lonely like a leavin train He sounds so lonely You're one silver tongued devil
Next door neighbors since we were nine This old mill town is in a sharp decline Talks about leaving almost every day It's the end of the season and there's no reason to stay Sometimes he'd talk about a fantasy To go off and become a famous guy His girlfriend just had the baby and how it would break his heart Now to leave them behind.
