SMALL TOWN GIRL

LAYIN' AWAKE STARIN' AT THE BRIGHT LIGHTS
SHININ' THROUGH THE WINDOW PAIN
THINKIN' 'BOUT A TIN ROOF 
TAPPIN' OUT THE RHYTHM OF A SUMMER RAIN
WHEN I LEFT I SWORE THAT 
I'D BE COMIN' BACK SOMEDAY
BUT THE ROAD FROM HERE TO HOME
KEEPS GROWIN' FARTHER EVERYDAY

I'M A SMALL TOWN GIRL
TRYIN' TO GET BY
IN AN UPTOWN WORLD
WHERE YOU NEVER SEE THE SKY
AND I SWORE I COULD MAKE IT ON MY OWN
BUT TONIGHT THIS SMALL TOWN GIRL IS GOIN' HOME

I CAN SEE MY MAMA
COOKIN' UP SUPER ON AN OLD WOOD STOVE
IN A LITTLE WHITE HOUSE SITTIN' DOWN BY A RIVER
ON A RED CLAY ROAD
AND I WAKE UP KNOWIN' 
THAT I SHOULD BE GOIN' WHERE I'D RATHER BE
I'M STAYIN' IN THE CITY
BUT MY HEARTS STILL LIVIN IN THE HILLS OF TENNESSEE

I'M A SMALL TOWN GIRL
TRYIN' TO GET BY
IN AN UPTOWN WORLD
WHERE YOU NEVER SEE THE SKY
AND I SWORE I COULD MAKE IT ON MY OWN
BUT TONIGHT THIS SMALL TOWN GIRL IS GOIN' HOME
