Ari Hest - Aberdeen lyrics

When I get out of Aberdeen one of these days Trade in the truck and these fields of green for a ticket on the airways I've seen pictures in magazines of skyscrapers and light displays And all that I can think about is getting away Every dollar I have saved Every winter I have braved Every road that I have paved Leads to somewhere Never was there any doubt I would make my way out I want to know what life's all about And I will get there Like clockwork the sun rises on this farm Brightens the hills and wakes the trees, this town has its charm But when you see it day in and day out for over twenty years What once was a choice becomes obvious, now it's clear [Chorus] When I get out of Aberdeen one of these days I'm not quite sure which way I'll lean, but it won't matter anyway And I'll never forget about you, We'll meet again someday But all I know is I can't stay [Chorus]
