Johnson Blvd

Up on Main Street
They built a highway
Changed its name to
Johnson Boulevard

Up on Thursday
Down on Friday
People ask me
Why are things so hard

Times been hard though
From Laredo
To San Jacinto
And it's a long way back home

There's an old train
In a stock yard
It's like a graveyard
Of things that come and gone

And the wind moves
On a gravestone
Where the men's gone
And everybody knows

Times been hard though
From Laredo
To San Jacinto
There's a long way back home
I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake
Sometimes you're standing still
And the wind just beats you down
Oh and sometimes it's just so hard
To keep your two feet right there on the ground

Mother's faithful
She goes to church still
She prays on Sunday
And Mondays too

Father's somewhere
In the back field
Thinking out loud
That this ain't nothing new

Time's been hard though
From Laredo
To San Jacinto
So why don't we just go back home
Why don't we just go back home
