Allison Moorer - Can't Get There from Here lyrics

You can't get there from here I can't live on bread and water You heard the one about the farmer's daughter She just needs a little atmosphere You don't pick your occupation I didn't ask for this frustration I need a life and a nice cold beer But you can't get there from here If I had time to think about it I'd build a castle in the yard For all the things I want so much Always something I can't touch But I guess that would be too hard You can't get there from here I can't live on bread and water You heard the one about the farmer's daughter She just needs a little atmosphere You don't pick your occupation I didn't ask for this frustration I need a life and a nice cold beer But you can't get there from here I'm on a road that's going nowhere Looking for a place that I belong The wind's pushing me in all directions But none of them look like home And you can't get there from here You can't live on bread and water You heard the one about the farmer's daughter She just needs a little atmosphere Every right track turns out wrong A different tune but the same old song I need a life and a nice cold beer But you can't get there from here No you can't get there from here
