Song:   Twisted
Typed by: AZ Lyrics

Oh oooo oh
It aint rained in a month
Mama done took a job part time at the five and dime
Lord, times is hard, Daddy's pride is really hurtin', feelin' less than a man
Workin dark to dark, how much more can he stand?
I aint never seen him cry now I'm 17
Quarterback, first train, gave my high school ring
to the prettiest little girl, green eyes and red hair
I think I might ask her to marry me tonight at the fair
I aint never been so torn, should I stay or leave?
Get out of this small town, am I lettin' 'em down?
I could even play ball somewhere in the fall
Live the big city life, I guess I could have it all

[Chorus]
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all this pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all the pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted

Man, how do you decide between real life and a dream?
Lovin' ya Ma and Pa, ya girl, and ya team
Trying to figure out the next move to make
trying to figure out the right road to take
Dying to get out, but still afraid to roam
Is it wrong to wanna leave the only place I've known?
Life as I know it is just simple and plain:
Chores, school, and practice, everyday is the same
I'm tired of the routine and everyone knowing me
I'm dreaming of everything the TV is showing me
They promised me a full ride to UCLA
but that's a whole 'nother world for small town G.A
Lord, I'm askin', I hope you hear my prayer
cuz I'm torn between here and what I see over there
I pray someway that you could give me a sign
Tell me which way to go cuz I sure don't know

[Chorus]
I dont know [sang in background]
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all this pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all the pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted

Lord, we're one win away from winning it all
and I'm a plan flight away from seeing my first ball
I can finally see the ocean and stars of Hollywood
Say bye to this damn farm, get a tattoo on my arm
Forget these dirt roads and the way I was raised
Chase the bright lights of the California nights
Sports cars and sushi is all I see
When I order some sweet tea they start laughin' at me
Boy, this new life aint what I thought it would be
Maybe the city life aint made for me
Now I'm wishing I was fishin' on the lake with Dad
and starting to realize being country aint bad
I miss that ol' farm and that red headed girl
and waking up before the sun to help Daddy get it done
I'm packed and headed back to the place I was born
Proud to be country and no longer torn

[Chorus]
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all this pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted, I feel the stress that's hangin on me
And all the pain in my family - they all depend on me
Lord, I'm twisted. yeah. Lord, I'm twisted. oh yeah
I dont know, I dont know, I dont know
If I should wait or should I go, I just dont know

This song is for everybody, no matter whether you're from a small town
the hood, the big city, it dont matter - Everybodys got their dreams they wanna follow
Some people are ashamed of where they're from, they dont know where they're
supposed to be. Everybody find your place in life, be proud of who you are
Dont let nothing hold you back

Just take me home..oh take me home
