James Dupré - Green Light lyrics

There's a little, old town in Louisiana That I'm lucky to call my own There's a warm bed waitin' and a momma sayin' You could always come back home I spent my younger years shiftin' gears Drivin' fast as a young man does Had my eyes on the prize and my name in lights Kickin' up a cloud of dust I was born on a green light Got the windows down It's a good time For runnin' around Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now Born on a green light Ain't no stoppin' me now You gotta get right Get your feet off the ground Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now, yeah I met a sweet-talkin' girl out in West Virginia And she loved me like a king But I could see it in her eyes every time she smiled She was makin' plans for me I said 'Oh no, baby, you know me maybe' 'But I know me better than that' 'But take a look at my life and my ex-wife' 'I'm leaving, I ain't lookin' back' 'Cause I was born on a green light Got the windows down It's a good time For runnin' around Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now Born on a green light Ain't no stoppin' me now You gotta get right Get your feet off the ground Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now, yeah 'Cause if there's a road Baby, I'm gonna go it And if there's an answer Damn sure, I'm gonna know it 'Cause I was born on a green light Got the windows down It's a good time For runnin' around Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now Born on a green light Ain't no stoppin' me now You gotta get right Get your feet off the ground Get up, get out of town Turn the radio louder now Let's roll
