lyrics

all i want is one more beer
before i stumble out of here;
maybe you can take me for a drive.
speeding through north platte cornfields,
the plains are fine if you've got wheels;
your west coast heart has got to let it slide.

though most things won't keep you here,
each town once was the frontier,
each town once was the frontier, you know.

take a right at this stop light,
i'm not that indisposed tonight;
i'm not that much of a cross to bear.
custer's hair like pale sunshine,
he cut it all off before he died;
his heart was black, but his soul was midwest air.

though most things won't keep you here,
each town once was the frontier,
each town once was the frontier, you know.
(repeat).

though most things won't keep you here,
each town once was the frontier,
each town once was the frontier, you know.
everything will disappear,
each town once was the frontier,
each town once was the frontier, you know.
