im not really sure what to name this one.

this may not be that good, but i dont care. i wanted everything i could remember to be a part of it.

as mamma left county road 1211
i didnt know itd be the last i saw
of the only life id ever known
we were leavin van zant count
we were leavin canton
leavin my family
my memories, my life
we were leavin my home,
my Heaven

its the big blue skies
and the hot summer sun
where 95 degrees is cold
its those old dirt roads
on your way into town
its your family nest door
and the stary night sky
its the small town life
and the place i love
its where i wanna be
its home

i took one last look around
before i took the steps
that would change my life forever.

as we flew higher
i cried as i watched the Lone Star State
drifting farther and farther away

the whole flight i sat there
wondrin' why mama
wanted to leave her family
her memories,
her home

its the big blue skies
and the hot summer sun
where 95 degrees is cold
its those old dirt roads
on your way into town
its your family next door
and the stary night sky
its the small town life
and the place i love
its where i wanna be
its home
