This Town

(Spoken)

We had a girl that came in with a drug overdose the other day

And she got real belligerent

And she bit one of the nurses (oh man)

And, I mean, she bit (ohhh)

You could see every tooth (nooo! Hehe)

It took two or three of us to get her off of her

It's a crazy wednesday

We finally got a flashing light, they put it in last year

And everybody got real happy when the grocery store got here

And last time the census men came

A-knockin', we were busting at the seams

Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting

This town's too small to be mean

Big enough for a zip code, a vfw

A good mexican restaurant, a beauty shop or two

Got a methodist, a baptist, and a church of the nazarene

Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting

This town's too small to be mean

Yeah, it's too dang small to be mean

Too small to be lying

Way too small to cheat

Way too small for secrets

Cause they're way too hard to keep

And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin

And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband

And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother

And around here, we all look out for each other

You'll end up in the paper, wreck your family name

What goes around comes back around by friday's football game

We only got one sheriff, but we all know how to keep the peace

Aw, and don't you forget it, as big as we're getting

This town's too small to be mean

Too small to be lying

Way too small to cheat

Way too small for secrets

Cause they're way too hard to keep

And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin

And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband

And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother

And around here, we all look out for each other

Yeah, somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin

And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband

And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother

And around here, we all look out for each other
