This song is not exactly autobiographical but it does come from some personal experience. It’s basically about coming of age in a small town with more libido than brains

85 will do down as the summer we spent on your floor
Believing nothing could be something if we touched just a little more
We had a name for folks who never left this place that I come from
Now they all sit around my table talking 'bout the things they should have done
I'd follow you all the way to Branson if you asked
Just to get on my knees and beg as you laughed
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Breckenridge is not the kind of place that you just run into
By 88 I had a day I didn't even think of you
Everybody's got a place they hate to say that they come from
And going back is something better when it's something that you haven't done
I followed you all the way to West Palm Beach and back
Then I gave you my name but you gave it right back
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Remember when you told me that your heart could never find a home
Did you think I'd be her waiting for you all alone
How long have we been asleep
The last sign I read said Battle Creek
I dreamt we drove to Los Angeles
The slow descention of your dress
The saddest song played in your eyes
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Amanda Lynn can you find your way back home
Remember when you told me that your heart could never find a home
Amanda Lynn
Amanda Lynn
Amanda Lynn
