This Town is That Small

Hello Friend I don't know where you're bound

But welcome to the incredible shrinking town

Before too long you'll be the latest rumor going 'round

They'll all smile and wave, they'll all know your name

Yeah, it's not about what you do, it's all bout who you know

So step right up and take a shot at the status quo

Oh and let me introduce you to some good God-fearin' folk

Hear the Church bells ring, listen to the choir sing

White fences, peach pie

Air kisses, wishing you well

So sweet

So nice

But if you get a secret

You better not tell

Street corners, back yards

Good Fiction is better than fact

They're masters of the art

Of "bless your heart" with a knife in your back

This town is that small

So help your self to some hospitality

Make your peace with your brand new scaled down dreams

You might think you're free to go, but you'll never leave

So find yourself some shade and pour some lemonade

White fences, peach pie

Air kisses, wishing you well

So sweet

So nice

But if you get a secret

You better not tell

Street corners, back yards

Good Fiction is better than fact

They're masters of the art

Of "bless your heart" with a knife in your back

This town is that small

They love to build you up just to knock you down

Cause this town.. this town..

White fences, peach pie

Air kisses, wishing you well

So sweet

So nice

But if you get a secret

You better not tell

Street corners, back yards

Good Fiction is better than fact

They're masters of the art

Of "bless your heart" with a knife in your back

This town is that small.
