Lyrics

I was born in a small town to Mary and Joe
In a town where everyone knows everyone
Railroad tracks planted in the middle of town
Where trucks line up on street every saturday night
Next day the church bells ring as I open my eyes
Smell of rain on hot asphalt and gravel dust
Stores with faded paint selling love and smiles
Farmers on side road selling their fresh picks
Love the city I live in but missing my small town

Dreamers are everywhere in the city I live in
People smile when they need to in a city I live
Subway stations and alleys at night doesn’t scare me
Fancy cars and mansions are nothing but a fairy tale
Shadows cover streets while sun shines up high
At nights the streets are brighter than the day lights
I miss the smell of fresh cut grass from my high school football field
Lonely dying oak tree in front of every farm
I carry piece of my small town everywhere I go

I don't need a fame or fortuneTrophies mean nothing to me
I walk along the righteous lane
Just a country girl living in city
Dreamers come to city with hope
But they leave with all the sorrows
All of us the nine to five-ers
Carry our small town in our hearts
And my heart will always live in my small town
