Real Gone

[Intro:]
I'm American made, apple pie, Chevrolet
My momma taught me wrong from right.

[Verse 1:]
I was born in the South
Sometimes I have a big mouth
When I see something that I don't like
I got to say it.

Well, we've been driving this road for a mighty long time
Paying no mind to the signs
Well, this neighborhood's changed
It's all been rearranged
We left that dream somewhere behind.

[Chorus:]
Slow down, you're going to crash
Baby you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast
Look out babe, you've got your blinders on
Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone
Real gone
Real gone.

[Verse 2:]
But there's a new cat in town
He's got high-faded friends
Thinks he's going to change history.

You think you know him so well
Yeah you think he's so swell
But he's just perpetuating prophecy.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Well you can say what you want
But you can't say it around here
Because they'll catch you and give you a whipping.

Well, I believe I was right when I said you were wrong
You didn't like the sound of that
Now, did you?

[Chorus] [x2]
