Real Gone

[Verse 1]

I'm American made, apple pie, Chevrolet

My mama taught me wrong from right

I was born in the South

Sometimes I have a big mouth

When I see something that I don't like

I gotta say it

Well, we've been driving this road for a mighty long time

Paying no mind to the signs

Well, this neighborhood's changed

It's all been rearranged

We left that team somewhere behind

[Chorus]

Slow down, you're gonna crash

Baby you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out babe, you've got your blinders on

Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone

Real gone

Real gone

[Verse 2]

But there's a new cat in town

He's got high-faded friends

Thinks he's gonna change history

You think you know him so well

Yeah you think he's so swell

But he's just perpetuatin' prophecy

[Chorus]

(C' mon now)

Slow down, you're gonna crash

Baby, you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out, you've got your blinders on

Everybody's looking for a way

To get real gone (uh uh uh uh)

Real gone (uh uh uh uh)

Real gone (uh uh uh uh)

Real gone (uh uh uh uh)

Uh

[Verse 3]

Well you can say what you want

But you can't say it 'round here

Cause they'll catch you and give you a whippin'

Well, I believe I was right when I said you were wrong

You didn't like the sound of that

Now, did ya?

[Chorus]

Slow down, you're gonna crash

Baby, you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out, you've got your blinders on

Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone

Well here I come and I'm so not scared

Got my pedal to the metal, got my hands in the air

Look out, you take your blinders off

Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone

Real gone

Real gone

Ooh

Real gone

Real gone
