Used to see you kicking around town

Out behind the cash america pawn

With a can of coke and a pack of pall malls

Sitting out by the pay phones, watching it get dark


Knew about you from a friend

I used to waitress with

You'd go to the park and drink and mess around

Make a fire, down by dougnut pond

She'd tell me all about it as she filled the salt


Touchdown on shining green lawns

Under church spires, so chapel white

But you see it all go down

Behind the cash america pawn


I was broken down on the access road

Didn't think you would stop but then you did

Your truck felt warm,

Your jacket smelled like cigarettes

We didn't talk about the trouble you'd been in...


All those touchdowns, on shining green lawns

Under church spires, so chapel white

But you see it all go down

Out behind the cash america pawn

(america, american, so all american)
