Stepsons Where You Came From Lyrics

Quarter tank of gasoline
Wind whistling through the willow trees
Heading back to your part of the state

Neon of the motel signs
Passing over the county line
Cranes in the sky, but it all still looks the same

'Cause there's a great big world to find
Out beyond that setting sun
But you always remember,
Where you came from

See the sidewalk etched in gray
Where your grandfather carved his name
Yeah, you got his nose and the amber of his skin

And I wonder now if he could see
The freeway where fields used to be
That led us back to where it once began

'Cause there's a great big world to find
Out beyond that setting sun
But you always remember,
Where you came from

And it all goes flying by
But you gotta carry on
Yeah, and always remember
Where you came from

Now I think I understand
Who you are more than I did
To see a house that once had been a home

And after all the years have passed
The walls they fade but the memories last
And you carry the weight wherever you go

There's a great big world to find
Out beyond that setting sun
But you always remember,
Where you came from

And it all goes flying by
But you gotta carry on
Yeah, and always remember
Where you came from.
