Misfit town
(Written by Steve Hopper)

This damned old town is like a big black hole
It draws you in and it swallows you whole
It's void of light and it void of hope
And it's never felt like home
And there's a cold wind blowing down the avenue 
And when your alone in the city it cuts you into
But there's a warm breeze blowing down thru the keys
And that's where I'm going to be

'Cause   I'm 
Getting out of this misfit town
I'm leaving tonight and I won't slow down
Till I'm out of site and I'm out of sound
Of this misfit town

I've got everything I own in my old truck
It's parked outside with tank filled up
With a little bit of hope and a little bit of luck
I'll be gone when the sun comes up
Now the only thing that's going to ease my mind 
Is seeing that city limit sign 
In my rear view mirror beside that white line
And leaving it far behind

'Cause   I'm 
Getting out of this misfit town
I'm leaving tonight and I won't slow down
Till I'm out of site and I'm out  of sound
Of this misfit town

Some place warmer is bound to be
The cure for what's ailing me

'Cause   I'm 
Getting out of this misfit town
I'm leaving tonight and I won't slow down
Till I'm out of site and I'm out  of sound
Of this misfit town. 
 'I'm  Getting out of this misfit town
I'm leaving tonight and I won't slow down
'Til I'm out of site and I'm out of sound

Of this misfit town

Of this misfit town
