John Anderson Small Town
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.
