"In a Small Town" Lyrics

Well, I've been lost in this town
Even though I know my way around
It didn't take me long until I found the devil
Just one word, I knew his voice
It's the one I heard in every choice I made
Just tryin' to be a rebel
In a small town
In a small town.

If you jumped off of our front porch
You would land right where the Civil War was fought
It's never been forgotten
There's 20 miles to the interstate
There's a Burger King and a Motel 8
And the only thing between here and there is cotton.

Jeffrey prays to Jesus
Askin' him please just help us through one more day
Jenny gets high, she waste her life
But me, I just ran away
From a small town
From a small town.

Sometimes it was Heaven, sometimes Hell
Kind of like church, kind of like jail
There's a water tower says welcome to nowhere
Soon as I could, I was long gone
My jeans were torn, and my hair was long
Now I can't believe I wanna go back there
To a small town
To a small town.

Jeffrey prays to Jesus
Askin' him please just help us through one more day
Jenny gets high, she waste her life
But me, I just ran away
But I knew I'd come back some day
To a small town
To a small town.

Oh to a small town,

To a small town.

Wooooooewww.
Wooooooewww.
Wooooooewww.

Ohh, to a small town...
