Outta State Lyrics by ACADEMY

The Beat Generation

2015

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel

Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
(This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, we get down)

[Verse 1: John That]
Blow my cares into the wind
Don’t count the days, been outta state
Cause on the roads been feeling home
I’m Kerouac, and you can’t relate
No turning back, so just lay in wait
And when I’m through, she lay awake
Askin' me if it’s my time
For watching new eyes dilate, so

[Bridge: John That]
I hold my breath underwater
I like to take it in slow
You’ve all been swimming in circles
I need a different bowl

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel

Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
[This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, we get down]

[Verse 2: John That]
Now I’m not hiding my intentions
I just want all your attention
‘Cuz I can’t forget the way it makes me feel
Hope I'm hitting good on your inner ear fluid
On the windows down cruise
Just let me take the wheel, and

[Bridge 2: John That]
I’ll hold your head underwater
I’ll let you take it in slow
You’ve got me swimming in circles
We need a different a bowl

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel

Show my hand before the roll
I don't do it for the taste
On the move, on the road
In the mood, outta state
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
(This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, this is how
This is the way, we get down)
