This Town's Been Too Good To Us (Stripped)

Gave us that hilltop place to park
Gave us them girls that stole our hearts
Gave us them books up on the wall
The way we live and the way we talk
Gave us state that senior year
Them country stores to buy that beer
A place to go nobody knows
Where you take it in and you take it

Slow, like that river rolls
Where that green grass grows
I can't explain it
Oh, it's something ain't it

Yeah, we sure painted it up
Tore down them old two lane roads
We either stole every sign
Or left a member of holes
It wasn't nowhere as bad
As we all say that it was
Yeah, looking back at it now
This town's been too good to us
Race held on the weekends
Yeah, man what were we thinking
When we said we'd leave it in a cloud of dust
This town's been too good to us
Too good to us

Good people in a back row pew
Good dirt that the corn grows through
Good water that can wash away our sins
Good times and some damn good friends
Whole lot of not too much to do
All the time in the world to do it
Every bit of that down-home dirt
Was heaven on earth and we never knew it

Yeah, we sure painted it up
Tore down them old two lane roads
We either stole every sign
Or left a member of holes
It wasn't nowhere as bad
As we all say that it was
Yeah, looking back at it now
This town's been too good to us
Race held on the weekends
Yeah, man what were we thinking
When we said we'd leave it in a cloud of dust
This town's been too good to us
Too good to us

Slow, like that river rolls
Where that green grass grows
I can't explain it
Oh, it's something ain't it
(It's something ain't it)

Yeah, we sure painted it up
Tore down them old two lane roads
We either stole every sign
Or left a member of holes
It wasn't nowhere as bad
As we all say that it was
Yeah, looking back at it now
This town's been too good to us
Race held on the weekends
Yeah, man what were we thinking
When we said we'd leave it in a cloud of dust
This town's been too good to us
Too good to us
This town's been too good to us
