This is an unlikely love song Kat wrote for East Haven, Connecticut, of all places. Time will tell whether she will actually stay around...

lyrics

There’s a pickup truck parked for 15 years
On my neighbors front lawn,
Hasn’t seen a road in twice as long,
I wonder if she’d like to get along.

I was born and raised in this deadbeat town,
Like my mother and hers before.
I’ve walked this road more than 20 years
Getting high, taking names, and writing songs.

I’ll stay around. I’ll stay around.
People always come and go
But I like what I know. I’ll stay around.

I can walk a mile through the backwoods way
That’s following the highway.
There’s a country store that knows my name,
I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’ve been around this world and back again
With a fiddle and a pen.
Didn’t know a thing but it’s just as well,
The good old days are here like they were then.

I’ll stay around. I’ll stay around.
People always come and go
But I like what I know. I’ll stay around.

This cracked pavement made for tougher skin,
Crumbling sidewalks kept the secrets of my sins.
First kisses underneath the ruins of railroad tracks,
I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’ll stay around. I’ll stay around.
People always come and go
But I like what I know. I’ll stay around.
