I'm A Small Town

[Verse 1] Well I’ve been around Since before the trains came through Well I’ve seen a lot But the first time my heart broke in two Was when they brought those Johnson brothers back To their mama with a flag Well I’m a small town [Verse 2] There’s hundreds just like me Yeah but I’m the one Well you happen to be When you learned how to ride your first bike Up and down my street Well you grew up And couldn’t wait to just get out I’m a small town [Chorus] Where everyone knows everyone There ain’t no secrets around here Sonny there you love me Or you hate me for everything I am Either I hold your heart Or I hold you down I’m a small town [Verse 3] Just a dot there on the map If you blink you miss me Yeah well go ahead and laugh But I’m where you kissed your first someone I’m where you hit your last home run I’m where you lay your grandpa in the ground Yeah, I’m a small town [Chorus] Where everyone knows everyone There ain’t no secrets around here Sonny there you love me Or you hate me for everything I am Either I hold your heart Or I hold you down I’m a small town [Verse 4] You left in a cloud of dust Big city bound But I never once gave up And when you looked into that newborn angel’s eyes And it occurred There was only one place good enough for her [Chorus] Where everyone knows everyone There ain’t no secrets around here Sonny there you love me Or you hate me for everything I am Either I hold your heart Or I hold you down I’m a small town [Outro] I’m a small town I’m a small town I’m a small town I’m a small town I’m a small town Yeah I’m a small town
