No Secrets In a Small Town
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He always leaves his harley bike about
A block away
She always leaves a light on in back to
Tell him it's ok
They stand a lot to lose
If these midnight rendezvous
Should make the morning news
'cause there's no secrets in a small town
Word gets around
You can't live it up if you can't live it down
In a small town
He's got this rebel reputation
From another day
She wonders if they're seen together what
Would people say
They're thinkin' they're so discreet
But they're givin' off so much heat
And now it's on the street
'cause there's no secrets in a small town
Word gets around
You can't live it up if you can't live it down
In a small town
There's a whole lot of good to be said
About a town of some small size
But you've got to live your life
As seen through pryin' eyes...
No matter how hard they've tried
This lovin' they've got inside
It's just too hard to hide
'cause there's no secrets in a small town
Word gets around
You can't live it up if you can't live it down
In a small town
No there's no secrets
There's just no secrets
No secrets in a small town
