Hit The Ground Running Lyrics - Smog

I had to leave the country 

Though there was some nice folk there 

Now I dont know where Im going 

All I know is Ill hit the ground running 

Only cowboys and southern gentlemen 

Betting women that will never mend 

They ride the roads as they bend 

As they bend to their dead ends 

I had to leave the country 

Though there was some nice folk there 

And now I dont know where Im going 

All I know is Ill hit the ground running 

I was raised in a pit of snakes 

Blink your eyes, I was raised on cake 

I couldnt memorize a century of slang 

Or learn to tell the same story 

Again and again and again, oh 

I had to leave the country 

Though there was some nice folk there 

Now I dont know where Im going 

All I know is Ill hit the ground running 

The bitterness is a lowest sin 

A bitter man rots from within 

Ive seen his smile, yellow and brown 

The bitterness is rotting down 

I had to leave the country 

Though there was some nice folk there 

Now I dont know where Im going 

All I know to do is hit the ground running 

Hit the ground running 

Hit the ground running 

Hit the ground running
