Arkansas Heat Lyrics - Arkansas Heat - Gossip

Two hours south of Memphis, y'all 

From a little town in Arkansas 

where the people haven't changed at all since 

Nineteen-sixty-five 

I play games with the powers that be 

I got the whole town sweatin' me 

Got the heat and the humidity 

and it's a wonder we're alive 

Well you sell off everything you own 

just to make it all on your own 

I ain't a child--I ain't full grown, but 

I'll prove to you! 

And tell the preacher, just in case he ask' 

That we ain't never, ever comin' back 

Well, it's all done and in the past, 

and that's good enough fo' me

Two hours south of Memphis, y'all 

From a little town in Arkansas 

where the people haven't changed at all since 

Nineteen-sixty-five 

Still judgin' us in this town, 

I wanna keep our mini-house 

They can run us out of our hometown, but 

They're never gonna keep us down! 

Well you sell off everything you own 

just to make it all on your own 

I ain't a child--I ain't full grown, but 

I'll prove to you! 

And tell the preacher, just in case he ask' 

That we ain't never, ever comin' back 

Well, it's all done and in the past, 

and that's good enough fo' me
