Circles Around This Town - Maren Morris (lyrics) I swear I don\u0027t know how I trusted A Montero with the AC busted A couple bad demos on a burned CD Would take me all the way to Tennessee I showed up to the new apartment First month\u0027s, last month\u0027s, two deposits Hadn\u0027t heard the sound of a door slam yet Thank God I was an optimist I drove circles around this town Tryin\u0027 to write circles around this town Tryna say somethin\u0027 with meanin\u0027 Somethin\u0027 worth singin\u0027 about I\u0027ve been kind and I\u0027ve been ruthless Yeah, I got here, but the truth is Thought when I hit it, it\u0027d all look different But I still got the pedal down Drivin\u0027 circles around this town So many times, I thought about leavin\u0027 Got my ass kicked tryin\u0027 to compete with Everybody else\u0027s ones that got away I\u0027m around long enough to catch a break A couple hundred songs and the ones that finally worked Was the one about a car and the one about a church That I wrote Drivin\u0027 circles around this town Tryin\u0027 to write circles around this town Tryna say somethin\u0027 with meanin\u0027 Somethin\u0027 worth singin\u0027 about I\u0027ve been kind and I\u0027ve been ruthless Yeah, I got here, but the truth is Thought when I hit it, it\u0027d all look different But I still got the pedal down Drivin\u0027 circles around this town Drivin\u0027 circles around this town Hey! I drove circles around this town Tryin\u0027 to write circles around this town Tryna say somethin\u0027 with meanin\u0027 Somethin\u0027 worth singin\u0027 about I\u0027ve been kind and I\u0027ve been ruthless Yeah, I got here, but the truth is Thought when I hit it, it\u0027d all look different But I still got the pedal down I still get lost, I still get found Drivin\u0027 circles around this town Oh yeah
