Well, I wanna send a post card

From the edge of a place I've never been

And I wanna make love hard

Under the stars in the back of a beat up ol' k-10

And I wanna love a girl who

Doesn't worry about the pictures when we kiss

Wake up one day and not be so hit-and-miss

Lay in bed all day and call that shit pure bliss.

I'm movin' at god speed

Only god and my mama know what I need

And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees

As I beg you just to take it easy on me.

I'm movin' at god speed.

Well, I wanna see the road melt

Into the mountains away as I drive

And make it out of this damn town alive

And not let the dreams I shoulder die.

'cause I'm movin' at god speed

Only god and my mama know what I need

And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees

As I beg you just to take it easy on me.

Well, I wanna die an old man

Messed-up stories of me and all my old friends

And laugh about how we all thought it won't end

How we all wind up where we begin.

Movin' at god speed

Where only god and our mamas know what we need

And we feel the hardwood floors on our knees

As we beg the world to bring us to our feet.

'cause I'm movin' at god speed

Only god and my mama know what I need

And I feel the hardwood floors on my knees

As I beg you just to take it easy on me.

I'm movin' at god speed.
