Lyrics

I'll Stay

It turns cold mighty fast once October has passed
The lake freezes over and there's frost on the grass
The summer folks leave and the traffic on Main
Finally gets back to normal again

My high school budies all left by and by
For distant green pastures and a piece of the pie
But there's something here, honest and real
Soft as the willows, but solid as steel

Seems everyone goes, they can't wait to get out
To see what this great big wide world is about
I may be the exception, but I don't buy the rule
That stayin' behind is the mark of a fool
I was born in this town and I'll do it my way
You can leave if you want, but I'll Stay

There's Randy's True Value and Margie's Cafe
There's even a WalMart not ten miles away
The Roalto on Maple, with it's creaky old seats
And a girl with brown eyes that makes it complete

Seems everyone goes, they can't wait to get out
To see what this great big wide world is about
But these dreams of mine, they whisper to me
Of love and a house and a close family
I was born in this town, and I'll do it my way
You can leave if you want, but I'll Stay

While my friends chase their dreams
Beyond county lines
I'm livin' proof, mine were here all the time

(CHORUS II)
