trapped in pennsylvania
so far away
from the woman who means everything to me
trapped in pennsylvania
though that’s not to say
pennsylvania ain’t an all right place to be
all right in the sense that some
people spend their whole lives here
but for me i don’t think it's workin out that way
if i don’t go i’ve gone crazy
can’t you see
she’s everything to me
the woods here, they glow at night
that’s pretty cool
sometimes i go outside and just stare
the hills and trees and valleys
well, they're greener than where i’m from
but they’re missin that northern mean streak
and every glowin night i
dream of my woman
her green eyes, her soft freckles, her hair
if i don’t go i’ll go crazy
can’t you see
she’s everything to me
it's the steel city
but the people are soft
soft in the good way, not the bad
hell, every of em'd
give you the shirt of their back
that is, if you're a steelers fan
if i don't go i'll go crazy
can't you see
really i'm just bidin my time
makin a little money with my summer sweat and grime
and when i'm done, i don't need no more guitars
just gotta fix my car
and i'll drive, drive, drive
to wherever to are
