Bright lights, big city, small town, ooh so pretty
One of these days I'm gonna have to choose
Between Dear John and John Deere
Should I hit the road or stay right here
From where I stand both ways I stand to lose
Is it gonna be...
Cornfields or Cadillacs, subway rails or railroad
tracks
Slow porch swing, five lane fast track
Dirt road, black top, girl don't look back
There's a farm boy in the rear view mirror
With a tremblin' lip and dust bowl tears
He says, "You gotta chase your dreams or chase me,
What's it gonna be?"
Cornfields or, cornfields
Cornfields or Cadillacs
I want him, but I want that
I want it all, but I can't have it
The grass looks mighty green on both sides
So I hit the brakes, I stomp on the gas
At this rate goin' nowhere fast
One of these miles, I'm gonna make up my mind
Is it gonna be...
Cornfields or Cadillacs, subway rails or railroad
tracks
Slow porch swing, five lane fast track
Dirt road, black top, girl don't look back
There's a farm boy in the rear view mirror
With a tremblin' lip and dust bowl tears
He says, "You gotta chase your dreams or chase me,
What's it gonna be?"
Cornfields or, cornfields
Cornfields or Cadillacs
Is it gonna be...
Cornfields or Cadillacs, subway rails or railroad
tracks
Slow porch swing, five lane fast track
Dirt road, black top, girl don't look back
There's a farm boy in the rear view mirror
With a tremblin' lip and dust bowl tears
He says, "You gotta chase your dreams or chase me,
What's it gonna be?"
Cornfields or, cornfields, cornfields
Cornfields or Cadillacs
