Hometown in my rearview
This truck ain't got enough gas
It ain't got enough gas to get me fast
Far away from you

Paid my dues in other towns
Here I just blow a fuse
Nothin' I can do that'll change you
I won't change my tune

Anywhere but here, anywhere but here
Rob a little money from the cashier
Anywhere but here

I spent a little time in Nashville
In the back of a limousine
They kissed my ass and they shook my hand
Turned their back on me
I gotta book of matches and a bottle of kerosene
Toss 'em a Molotov cocktail
Maybe that'll change their scene

Anywhere but here, anywhere but here
Gather round friends lend me your ears
Anywhere but here

Gonna get me a rocket ship
Aim it towards that sun
Throw me in and strap me down
5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1

Anywhere but here, anywhere but here
Shoot me through the atmosphere
Anywhere but here

Anywhere but here, anywhere but here
Blow me through the ionosphere
Anywhere but here
