Intro
G
VERSE 1:
G
Effington could be a wonderful f'ing place
I can see it from the highway
And I'm wondering
G
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.
G
VERSE 2:
G
Maybe I should ditch this little white rental on the interstate
And start a new f'ing life...in effington
G
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.
