Small Town Lyrics - John Anderson

You can talk about the weather or the Mayor's sister 

You can talk about small talk 

You can walk the city limits in a matter of minutes 

Talk about taking a walk 

You can count the stars in the clear night sky 

Or sit back and listen while the train rolls by 

Hey it's a small town, they roll the sidewalks up 

Come around sundown 

Hey it's a small town, the place where we grew up 

And still hang around 

That rich young widow keeps talkin' to the preacher 

Lord help their souls be saved 

And Mr. Johnson's daughter flew in from Nevada 

When they put him in his grave 

Tommy took a summer job in Pontiac 

He's still writing letters but he's not coming back 

Hey it's a small town, they roll the sidewalks up 

Come around sundown 

Hey it's a small town, the place where we grew up 

And still hang around 

Hey it's a small town, they roll the sidewalks up 

Come around sundown 

Hey it's a small town, the place where we grew up 

And still hang around, I'm easy to be found 

Hey it's a small town
