Josh Ritter - Lawrence, KS Lyrics
Dirt roads and dry land farming might be the death of me
But I can't leave this world behind
Debts are not like prison where there's hope of getting free
And I can't leave this world behind
Trying to leave my state of mind
Trying to leave this awful sadness
But I can't leave this world behind
South of Delia there's a patch out back by the willow trees
And I can't leave this world behind
It's a fenced in piece of nothing where I hear voices on my knees
And I can't leave this world behind
Some prophecies are self-fulfilling
Better times will come to me, God willing
Cause I can't leave this world behind
This world must be frightening everybody's on the run
And I can't leave this world behind
And my house is a wooden one and its built on a wooden one
Seems I can't leave this world behind
Preacher says when the Master calls us
But my wings are made of hay and corn husks
So I can't leave this world behind

LFK or Berkley on the Plains as we locals call it. Not your average town in flyover territory. Some believe that time warps for some residents leaving them with one foot in the present and the other in the 60's
Trying to figure out why two gave it the thumbs down.
they couldn't leave it behind
this song should be on supernatural :-)
+Fishhippiegirl ...agreed
