lyrics

My town is like an island
In a sea of wheat and interstate
Been shipwrecked here my whole damn life
My parents think the place is great
My grandma told me stories about dancing on the ocean shore
Her voice cracks like the peeling paint
That's dying on the kitchen floor
On Friday nights, the football boys
All gathered in the parking lots
And laugh and shout of brotherhood
And boast about the girls they’ve got
The letters on their jackets meaning something about how they play
But destined to mean yesterday with tomorrow rocketing this way
And they say,
“I don’t wanna stay in Fremont, Nebraska
Although it’s OK in Fremont, Nebraska
Everybody jump in Fremont, Nebraska
Shackled up with love in Fremont, Nebraska”
I dreamed of you in halls of gold
Dewdrops on your eyelashes
Lilac lips so soft and full
Diamonds at your fingertips
No one understands these visions
Where’d they come from – not from here
Where you’re cute in the wedding dress
You’re sharing with our daughter, dear
What a fantastic year!
I don’t wanna stay in Fremont, Nebraska
Although it’s OK in Fremont, Nebraska
Everybody jump in Fremont, Nebraska
Shackled up with love in Fremont, Nebraska

Sidewalk Driver Boston

The music of Sidewalk Driver is high energy, highly-infectious, hook-driven, Rock with a capital 'R.' The sound is modern but the heart of the band seems to be more in line with 1970s rock culture - the Bowies & the Belushis of the world. The songs always come with some odd bent but not one that repels; rather, they welcome you to join in the celebration like a carnival barker hyping a freak show. ... more
