Head to work but I'm feeling fine
Seems like everybody I know has come around
We're just a small town
When al and john and I were kids
I did what a younger brother did
I would watch them chase rattlers from the ground
And I prayed they'd never leave this town
But al and john went to Iraq
When al came home he held my mothers hand
As the church bells rang the whole town broke down
War in a small town
Yeah!
When my work is done and the moon comes up
I'm gonna call the preachers daughter and start my truck
Everybody but the preacher knows where were bound
But aint no one talkin since my brother went down
We're gonaa cross the strip to the liquor store
We're gonna pass the party on the river's shore
Tonight she says she wants higher ground
Way above the lights of our home town
And one day she'll be my wife
And the preacher will swear that we've done it right
But if he could hear tonight these sounds
Love in a small town
Yeah
Well I don't guess that i'll ever see
Paris, rome, or nyc
The strip and the river that's were I'm found
We're just a small town
We're just a small town
Yeah
The sun is up and I'm on the rise Head to work but I'm feeling fine Seems like everybody I know has come around We're just a small town When al and john and I were kids I did what a younger brother did I would watch them chase rattlers from the ground And I prayed they'd never leave this town But al and john went to Iraq When al came home he held my mothers hand As the church bells rang the whole town broke down War in a small town Yeah! When my work is done and the moon comes up I'm gonna call the preachers daughter and start my truck Everybody but the preacher knows where were bound But aint no one talkin since my brother went down We're gonaa cross the strip to the liquor store We're gonna pass the party on the river's shore Tonight she says she wants higher ground Way above the lights of our home town And one day she'll be my wife And the preacher will swear that we've done it right But if he could hear tonight these sounds Love in a small town Yeah Well I don't guess that i'll ever see Paris, rome, or nyc The strip and the river that's were I'm found We're just a small town We're just a small town Yeah Explain Request ×
