I Ll Sing About Mine Lyrics - Small Town Family Dream - Josh Abbott

In my hometown 

Population just a few thousand 

All of those kids at the drive in 

After Friday nights football game 

Thats the same place 

Mom and dad went on their first date 

Had the same burger I just ate 

Man some things never change 

Thats what made me who I am today 

Gave me a million songs to play 

When the radios on I just dont understand 

Because tractors aint sexy, 

And workin is hard, 

For small town people like me 

And the radios full of rich folks singin 

About places theyve never seen 

And I aint sayin their lifes aint hard 

Id love to hear about it sometime, 

Let em sing about their own life 

And Ill sing about mine. 

Im not complaining, 

Running my mouth like an old man 

Talking about a world thats changing 

And how its given up on me 

And Im just saying 

Down at nicks on a weekend 

Small town anthems theyre singin g 

Dont sound like what you see 

When you talk about the dairy queen 

Pickup trucks and Springsteen 

Make the place I love 

Sound like a bad cartoon 

Because tractors aint sexy, 

And workin is hard, 

For small town people like me 

And the radios full of rich folks singin 

About places theyve never seen 

And I aint sayin their lifes aint hard 

Id love to hear about it sometime, 

Let em sing about their own life 

And Ill sing about mine. 

If you want a song about 

A place like my hometown 

Take a weekend to come on down 

It wont take long to see 

Because tractors aint sexy, 

And working is hard, 

For small town people like me 

And the radios full of rich folks singing 

About places theyve never seen 

And I aint saying their lifes aint hard 

Id love to hear about it sometime, 

Let em sing about their own life 

And Ill sing about mine. 

They can sing about their own life 

And ill sing about mine.
