Small Town Girl

My sister called last night
Asked me if Iwas alright
I laughed and said I was great
We talked until it was late
of growing up and memories
those big city dreams of breaking free

I'm a small town girl
life in the city just a tilt a whirl
BBQ on a saturday night
Catching fireflies in the moonlight
Splashing in the creek
playing hide n seek
A hometown football game
church on sundays, it's always the same.
I'm just a small town girl...

Sitting on my porch, folks stop by
each has a story, its called life
Tales of laughter, love, and heartbreak
Larry's dog ate Susans Wedding Cake
Whose seeing who and what they were wearing
who died and whose a marrying
Folks head home the way they came
small town life its always the same

I'm a small town girl
life in the city just a tilt a whirl
BBQ on a saturday night
Catching fireflies in the moonlight
Splashing in the creek
playing hide n seek
A hometown football game
church on sundays, it's always the same.
I'm just a small town girl...

Each night under the stars, I give thanks
For my daughters, even their pranks
Children are ours to raise truth,
honor respect we praise
They grow and find their own way
small town values will always stay

I'm a small town girl
life in the city just a tilt a whirl
BBQ on a saturday night
Catching fireflies in the moonlight
Splashing in the creek
playing hide n seek
A hometown football game
church on sundays, it's always the same.
I'm just a small town girl...
