lyrics

small town kid

he's a small town kid prone to disaster
an unlikely rebel filled with desire
spends every dime in the jukebox, babe
he's got a knack for making you scream

armed with power chords and a pawn shop electric
ripped up jeans, high-heeled boots
he won't give it up while they keep on draggin' him down
he's gotta get out of here

you've gotta take this down to another town
they're gonna kill you here, follow the yellow line

he moved to a city to render delusion
working for the man while he can
hone the tricks of the trade, you gotta get paid
sometimes you gotta see the light

you've gotta take this down to another town
they're gonna kill you here, you've gotta let it shine

and if i let them have it
i'd be dead

you've gotta take this down to another town
they're gonna kill you here, follow the yellow line

i've got my band behind me and a party up front
this town's pretty cool and the people are wild
i don't want to give this up but i gotta get out of here

i've gotta take this down to another town
and if i let them have it i'd be dead inside

about

Dany Laj And The Looks Montreal, Québec

"Dany Laj writes the kind of tunes full of yearning: for love, for commitment, for purpose, for getting the hell out of town. Fortunately he wraps this angst in the kind of tuneful confections that make fast friends on one spin." - Big Takeover Magazine ... more
