Intro
D
VERSE 1:
D
Effington could be a wonderful f'ing place
I can see it from the highway
And I'm wondering
D
Are they f'ing in their yards
f'ing in their cars
f'ing in the trailers and the backroads and the parking lots of Effington
Making my way to Normal, Illinois.
D
VERSE 2:
D
Maybe I should ditch this little white rental on the interstate
And start a new f'ing life...in effington
D
I could change my name, grow a beard, start a family
Or I could just keep on moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
Not stop 'til I get to Normal.
