lyrics

George's Creek is where I met Arleen
She's the girl with the worn-out jeans
The sky above fades to black
And what we had is never coming back

And Arleen says she's doing well
But living at home was hell
We wouldn't always get along
Knew that there was something wrong

Parties were warm, paper cups in the fire
Arleen would leave me with a burning desire
To take a drive in her daddy's car
Heaven knows we wouldn't get that far

And we spent our nights in motels
'Cause living alone was hell
We wouldn't always get along
It'd been that way too long

And anywhere is better than here right now
I've gotta get away from here somehow

And Arleen says she's doing well
But she checked out of that motel
And just like that she was gone
And know I'll have to carry on

And anywhere is better than here right now
I've got to get away from here somehow
