RIGHT WHERE I BELONG
Writers: Rick Bowles, Josh Leo

 

I’M FROM A ONE STORY TOWN
WHERE YOU’RE BORN AND WORK TILL THEY LAY YOU IN THE GROUND
AND THE ONLY SOUND FOR MILES AROUND
IS WHEN THEY ROLL THE STREETS UP AFTER SUNDOWN

NEEDED A CHANGE OF SCENE AT EIGHTEEN
HAD BIG PLANS FOR MYSELF
TO NOT END UP LIKE EVERYONE ELSE

CHORUS
WITH ONE GOOD WOMAN AND A FEW GOOD FRIENDS
SUPPER ON THE TABLE WHEN THE WORK DAY ENDS
SERMON ON SUNDAY MORNING TO KEEP YOU STRONG
AIN’T GETTIN RICH BUT ENOUGH TO GET BY
FOR AN HONEST MAN TO HOLD HIS HEAD UP HIGH
I KNEW THAT WASN’T RIGHT WHERE I BELONG

I SWORE I’D CARVE MY NAME
INTO HISTORY IN THE BIG CITY GAME
SO I ENTERED THE RACE FOR FORTUNE AND FAME
BUT I LOST MYSELF AND THAT’S A HIGH PRICE TO PAY

FROM WHERE I STOOD ALL OF THE SUDDEN
IT DIDN’T SEEM SO BAD
LOOKING BACK FROM THE LIFE I COULD’VE HAD

CHORUS

BRIDGE
LOOKING AT THAT CITY IN MY REAR-VIEW MIRROR
RIGHT WHERE I BELONG, IT COULDN’T BE ANY CLEARER
BACK IN THIS ONE STORY TOWN, THINKING ‘BOUT SETTLING DOWN

CHORUS
