Small Town Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

Well I was born in a small town 

And I live in a small town 

Prob'ly die in a small town 

Oh, those small communities 

All my friends are so small town 

My parents live in the same small town 

My job is so small town 

Provides little opportunity 

Educated in a small town 

Taught the fear of Jesus in a small town 

Used to daydream in that small town 

Another boring romantic, that's me 

But I've seen it all in a small town 

Had myself a ball in a small town 

Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town 

Now she's small town just like me 

No I cannot forget where it is that I come from 

I cannot forget the people who love me 

Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town 

And people let me be just what I want to be 

Got nothing against a big town 

Still hayseed enouogh to say 

Look who's in the big town 

But my bed is in a small town 

Oh, and that's good enough for me 

Well I was born in a small town 

And I can breathe in a small town 

Gonna die in this small town 

And that's prob'ly where they'll bury me
