State Road 21 Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of The Bridges of Madison County

The Bridges of Madison County (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2014

[STATE FAIR GIRL SINGER]
Come on, children, and climb in the back seat!
Come on, children, it's time for some fun!
Get inside, we're gonna take a ride
On State Road 21!
Come on, children, I filled up the gas tank
Long way to go before we get done
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!
[STATE FAIR SINGER & COMPANY]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!
[Fiddle solo]
[MICHAEL]
Since 9 p.m., I been sittin' here
Just keepin' my eye on some stupid steer
That's how I'm spendin' my junior year!
But I swear I'm gettin' wise
It's my last time here, I guarantee!
I got other places I'm s'posed to be
I won't have my old man ridin' me
'Til the day he up and dies
Oh, oh, what does he know
When his head's been buried in the ground so low?
Oh, oh, what does he know
About life in the real world?
I said, oh, oh, what does he know?
My fuse is lit and I'm gonna blow
'Cause oh, oh, I gotta know
About life in the real world
[CAROLYN]
I got a ringin' in my ears
And my hands keep shakin'
I ate seven corn dogs
And I think I might die
Five more hours
'Till the final judging
I can hold it all together
And I will not cry
Oh God! Do I have a fever?
Oh God, things are startin' to swirl
Oh God, I was doin' so well
Now they're all gonna think I'm just a dumb little girl
Well, oh, oh, what do they know
About what it takes to make a bull calf grow?
Oh, oh, what do they know
About life in the real world?
[CAROLYN & MICHAEL]
Oh, oh, what do they know?
[CAROLYN]
They prob'ly came over from Ohio
[CAROLYN & MICHAEL]
And oh, oh, what do they know
About life in the real world?
[STATE FAIR SINGER]
Let's go, baby, and roll by the river
Feel the heat comin' down from the sun—
Oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!
Ev'rybody:
[STATE FAIR SINGER & COMPANY]
Oh oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh oh oh ohhh!
