Lyrics
1.
Bobby said, "I'm outta here;
gonna make it my own way!"
Got some money and caught that bus
On the road down to LA
Did his best to make it there
With a brand new attitude
Last Sunday mornin',
They found him OD'd in a motel room
Chorus
Everybody's changin'
Everybody's tryin' somethin' new
Everybody's changin'
Ain't satisfied with you know who.
2.
Twenty years ago today,
Lacey stood and said, "I do"
Three kids and a family car
Was the best that I could do
But, Lacey got on the internet
Met some guys down Cali way
Lacey fin'ly took that plunge,
And that's why I'm here today.
3.
Penny left her kith and kin
Left the better for the best
Wanted to find her destiny,
So she moved out to the west
Did her best to make it there
With a brand new attitude
Hooked up with Lacey's ex,
Now she's on her honeymoon.
