Bakersfield
[Verse 1]
And we're glad you came
It's good to see you here again
For the hundredth time
I can't believe you haven't changed
But back in Arkansas, we must have thought that we were kings
But this is Bakersfield, and now it doesn't mean a thing
[Verse 2]
There was the whippoorwill
I swear I've never heard one out here
And the sky has changed
We have lost our Milky Way
But back in Arkansas, every hour a shooting star
But this is Bakersfield, and this, another lousy bar
[Bridge]
And I can't believe we've come this far
And I'm worried about the car and about the rain
We got taken on this bag of weed
And I taste another seed, so let's go home
[Verse 3]
And we made it here
I can't believe we made it past Needles
So let's have a beer
We don't be buying nothing for a while
But things are better now that I can finally stretch my wings
And this is Bakersfield, and you've become my everything
