作曲：Keith Gattis

Well I've been around

Since before the trains came through

And I've seen a lot

But the first time my heart broke in two

Was when they brought those Johnson brothers back

To their mama with a flag

Well I'm a small town

There's hundreds just like me

Yeah but I'm the one

Where you have born to be

Where you learn how to ride your first bike

Up and down my street where you grew up

And couldn't wait to just get out

I'm a small town

Where everyone knows everyone

There ain't no secrets around here

Sonny there you loved me

You had me for everything I am

Either I hold your heart or I hold you down

I'm a small town

Just a dot there on the map

And if you blink you'll miss me

Now go ahead and laugh

But I'm where you kissed your first someone

I'm where you hit your last home-run

I'm where you laid your grandpa in the ground

Yeah I'm a small town

Where everyone knows everyone

There ain't no secrets around here

Sonny there you loved me

You had me for everything I am

Either I hold your heart or I hold you down

I'm a small town

You left in a cloud of dust

Big city bound

But I never once gave up

And when you looked into that newborn angel's eyes

Then it occurred

There was only one place good enough for her

Where everyone knows everyone

There ain't no secrets around here

Sonny there you loved me

You had me for everything I am

Either I hold your heart or I hold you down

I'm a small town

I'm a small town

I'm a small town

I'm a small town

I'm a small town

Yeah I'm a small town
