Podunk
By Keith Anderson
G
Same Saturday night, same ol' crowd
G
Draggin' Main to the Safeway then turn back around
C G
'Til curfew and then head down to the river's edge and get drunk
D G
Ain't nothing new what else you gonna do out in Podunk
Well I knew this six-string was my ticket out
No flashin' red light was gonna slow me down
18 years old everything that I owned in the back of that truck
I put a dip in my mouth and I headed straight out outta Podunk
1st Chorus:
G
Goodbye, daddy looked me in the eye
G
Said go where you gotta go But don't forget to call home
C
And momma cried keep Jesus in your life and I hugged her one last time
D
And then I headed down the roadin a dusty cloud of smoke Out of Podunk
Bridge:
Am
A lot of years gone by showin' on my face
G
Ain’t nothing in this life that time hasn't changed
Am
I chased a lot of dreams and some of them came true
Am C/B C D
Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from is the place I'm runnin' to
Another Saturday night singin' to the same ol' crowd
Still playin this six-string but things are different now
I met one of them girls, turn your whole world around girls
And wouldn't you know it
Got our eyes on a house 'bout a hundred miles south out in Podunk
2nd Chorus:
Goodbye, her daddy looked me in the eye
And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home
And her momma cried sadi keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time
Then we headed down the road to start a family of our own out in Podunk
Repeat 2nd Chorus 2x
