Lyrics
Off The Interstate
j.barranco/j.cerisano 2007©
If you’re living in the city
And you need to get away
Why don’t you let tomorrow
Take you back to yesterday
Where the chicken’s in the fryer
And the burgers on the grill
Clothes are out back drying
Just beyond the window sill
If you’re looking for America
And you don’t mind being late
You can find her on the back roads
get off the interstate
You might find a drive in movie
Underneath the stars
Sharing butter popcorn
in the back seat of your car
And the little church down on main street
Is still a sacred place
Where they gather every Sunday
to sing amazing grace.
If you’re looking for America
And you don’t mind being late
You can find her on the back roads
Just beyond the interstate
Mama’s in the kitchen
Baking up an apple pie
The kid’s on the front porch swing
Trying to touch the sky
If you’re looking for America
And you don’t mind being late
You can find her on the back roads
Just beyond the interstate
You can find her on the back roads
Just off the interstate
When you wanna see America
Get off the interstate
