[Intro] Hand-me-down rows Hand-me-down rows Same old smoke Same old smoke [Verse 1] Windows close way too fast Young dreams sink do not last Checkout light painted smiles Borrowed names borrowed lives Same dust blows same boys pose Nothing moves down those roads [Pre-Chorus] They call it roots, but it holds you down They call it pride when it circles round They call it home when the air turns thin But nothing new gets let in [Chorus] Nothing grows in the hand-me-down rows Same old dust under the same old smoke Down that road they trade your name for time Till your young heart bends to the same hard line Nothing grows where the cold wind knows How to keep you small in the hand-me-down rows Round and round till the light runs low And nobody leaves but the radio [Verse 2] King-boy rides chrome and noise Little throne cheap little choice Beer goes up girl goes still Next year comes same old thrill Same laugh lands same fate shows Same bad blood in those rows [Pre-Chorus] They call it freedom, they call it fire But it all burns down to the same old wire They call it living when the room gets loud But nothing rises from that ground [Chorus] Nothing grows in the hand-me-down rows Same old dust under the same old smoke Down that road they trade your name for time Till your young heart bends to the same hard line Nothing grows where the cold wind knows How to keep you small in the hand-me-down rows Round and round till the light runs low And nobody leaves but the radio [Bridge] Same joke same stain Same blood same name No wide sky no clean break Just one more life they learn to take [Final Chorus] Nothing grows in the hand-me-down rows Same old dust under the same old smoke Down that road they trade your name for time Till your young heart bends to the same hard line Nothing grows where the cold wind knows How to keep you small in the hand-me-down rows Round and round till the light runs low And nobody leaves but the radio [Outro] Hand-me-down rows same old smoke Hand-me-down rows nothing grows
