boom town - red shahan lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
take away all her worries now
she could go back to stripping in a boom town
she’d pay off the debt that her husband built
i doubt he’ll pay it from a prison cell

[chorus]
what would they do?
what if they found out?
oh lord

[verse 2]
two mouths to feed and her rent ain’t paid
decisions you hope you never have to make
the permian basin calls her name
paying for gas with only pocket change

[chorus]
and if she told her kids her secrets
how christmas morning was everything they wanted
would they think she’s in the wrong
but how the h-ll do you think the lights stayed on?
what would they do?
what if they found out?
oh lord

[verse 3]
daddy’s getting out real soon, she thinks
gotta pick up and move by the end of the week
two flat tires [?]
only time the kids saw my mama cry

[chorus]
and if she told her kids her secrets
how christmas morning was everything they wanted
well they think she’s in the wrong
but how the h-ll do you think the lights stayed on?
what would they do?
what if they found out?
oh lord

[verse 4]
life ain’t a peach for one and all
and how far would you go with your back to the wall?
lessons learned, money well-spent
two kids in college, no house payment

[chorus]
and if she told her kids her secrets
how christmas morning was everything they wanted
well they think she’s in the wrong
but how the h-ll do you think the lights stayed on?
what would they do?
what if they found out?
oh lord

[outro]
she went back stripping in a boom town
she went back stripping in a boom town
