Well, I took my first steps in that house on Bowser Road
I fell flat on my face, but got back up, or so I'm told
And there's a thousand houses like it filled with stumblin' little kids
This ain't just a town, it's where I learned to live
I used to cruise these streets in Daddy's truck on Friday nights
And that feed store parking lot is where I got in my first fight
And it's where we said I'm sorry, to this day he's still my friend
This ain't just a town, it's where I learned to live
Everything I know I learned between these county lines
How to win and how to lose and how all you can do is try
It don't look like much, but it's home to me
It's where I wanna die
Amy came along, stole my heart and broke it fast
I thought I'd find the cure in the bottom of a glass
Out on highway 60 found out whiskey and gasoline don't mix
This ain't just a town, it's where I learned to live
Everything I know I learned between these county lines
How to win and how to lose and how all you can do is try
It don't look like much, but it's home to me
It's where I wanna die
Mount Pleasant Second Baptist, it's where we wear our Sunday best
It's where both my girls were baptized, where granddad's laid to rest
Everything I love's within half a mile of this
It ain't just a town, it's where I learned to live
This ain't just a town, it's where I learned to live
