Well if I had a nickel for every line this town put on my face
If I had a dime for every time I said I was fixing to leave this place
It would help me buy the gas I'm about to pour on everything I've seen
I can't be sentimental when it don't mean nothing to me
Let it burn burn just let it burn
I'm sick of hangin round here waiting for the tide to turn
It don't matter if its far or near just as long as I get out of here
Let it burn let it burn
I work too damn hard to wind up in this shotgun shack
To get a little behind and have a man come and take it back
They're all breathing down my neck waiting for me to fall
Well if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all
Let it burn burn momma let it burn
I can't wait to see em all when they ain't got nowhere to turn
I watch the flames light up the sky
Blow em a kiss as I wave goodbye Yeah
Let it burn burn just let it burn
Well I'm sick of hangin round here waiting for the tides to turn
Yeah even if I wanted to stay they'd probably run me out of here anyway
Let it burn
