I use to run from the past

But the world got to spinnin' so fast

I run from the future now



I run as fast as I can

Tryin' to be a simple man

I just want to slow down



Well, laugh if you want to

Call me a backward fool

But I ain't takin' this ride



Y'all just go on ahead and go

Let me out by the side of the road

All I wanna do is go on home



Don't go online, I don't watch TV

'Cause I know all I'm gonna see

Is something stupid goin' on



Stupids in the water these days

They're gonna drink it anyway

'Til they don't know right from wrong



Yeah, laugh if you want to

Call me a backward fool

But I ain't takin' this ride



Y'all just go on ahead and go

Let me out by the side of the road

All I wanna do is go on home



Yeah, all I wanna do is go on home
