Lowlands

He came from the lowlands
 A farm in Tennessee that took the stand
 A baby too small to want much more
 To the west hills he was taken for to grow
 ♪
 His mother a mystery
 Too wraped up in her theories to attend
 His father wants so bad the simple life
 And neither took the time to raise him right
 Oh, he's gone back
 He's looking for a girl to ease his mind
 But I'm bettin' my last dime he won't return
 For a long, long time
 'Cause he's looking for a different kind
 ♪
 Now, back to Tennessee
 Summers fill where this road he's walkin' started
 The people there still lived off washed-up dreams
 And we watched the fires burn down last year's fields
 Oh, he's gone back
 He's lookin' for a girl to ease his mind
 But I'm bettin' my last dime he won't return
 For a long, long time
 'Cause he's looking for a different kind
 ♪
 Now cynical and jaded
 The Pacific coasters hold his head and heart
 A man who fares his own way with his pride
 But the proud ways leave an empty place inside
 Oh, he's gone back
 He's lookin' for a girl to ease his mind
 But I'm bettin' my last dime he won't return
 For a long, long time
 'Cause he's looking for a different kind
 Yeah, he's out to find a different kind
