Small Town Girls

1. Small town girls live life sweetly

They don’t waste time dreaming of opportunity

Small town girls learn quickly

They live for who they are not who they wanna be

X: Upon the greenest grass they laugh and grow

The man who makes the boundaries no one knows

R: Small town girls they make the whole world turn

Don’t get their fingers burned quite as easy as the rest, oh oh

Small town girls they make my heart collapse

Such a shame the Bible never said that

The foundations of the world, they are built on small town girls

2. Small town girls stop at nothing

They take no prisoners, never try small talking

And what they have is quite unique

Their hearts are big enough to wear on their sleeves

X: Upon the greenest...

R: Small town girls...

*: Everybody knows they’re quite a chase

When everybody looks they hide their face

3. Small town girls are innocent

With rosy cheeks and grassy knees their life is heaven sent

Most girls marry young and have some kids

But who am I to tell them what they’ve missed

R: Small town girls...

Small town girls
