South Carolina Lyrics

South Carolina's where I grew my legs

And when I was fifteen my mother said

When you get older you'll understand

But do it all, do it till you can't

Then I'm eighteen, I'm on my own

Big city, so far from home

I wanna live, or at least I wanna try

Empty bottle, teardrop in my eye

Who we are is not who we were

Maybe love's just a thing we learn

We wanna be proud when we grow up and

Look back on the things we did when we were young

Left my love now I'm on the road

Wish I could say I could let her go

I'll be gone when the day wakes up

If I fall now, I'll never be enough

Who we are is not who we were

Maybe love's just a thing we learn

We wanna be proud when we grow up and

Look back on the things we did when we were young

Who we are is not who we were

Maybe love's just a thing we learn

We wanna be proud when we grow up and

Look back on the things we did when we were young
