In my little town
I grew up believ–ing
God keeps his eye on us all
And he used to lean upon me
As i pledged allegiance to the wall
Lord i recall
My little town

Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates
Of the factories
My mom doing the laundry
Hanging our shirts
In the dirty breeze

And after it rains
There’s a rainbow
And all of the colors are black
It’s not that the colors aren’t there
It’s just imagin-ation they lack
Everything’s the same
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

In my little town
I never meant nothin’
I was just my fathers son
Saving my money
Dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun
Leaving nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town
Repeat and fade:
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

We lock the doors at night
All the sirens scream
I don’t drive my car
Insurance is too high

I live here in the city
My hometown’s far away
I workout with concrete
I don’t drive my car

The stars come out at night
You see them on the strip
Everybody arms themselves
There’s no other place like this

I’ll never leave this
Small town girl behind
The place where I come from
Is with me all the time

Oh, you could walk the streets
When the sun goes down
In my little town
You don’t need defenses
When the sun goes down
In my little town

Back home on the street
After 10 at night
Mrs. Avery walks her dog
Checks to see what’s going on
She doesn’t lock the door
She lives here in good health
You don’t hear the horn
When Mrs. Avery walks her dog

All I ever wanted
Was a view of city lights
Break away from here
Leave behind the quiet nights
Spend half your life
Trying to make a change
Then the other half
Trying to get back again

Oh, you could walk the streets
When the sun goes down
In my little town
You don’t need defenses
When the sun goes down
In my little town

Look down the road
Look at the highway
Look past the fences
Look at the faces
What do you have on the other side?

Oh, you could walk the streets
When the sun goes down
In my little town
You don’t need defenses
When the sun goes down
In my my town
You could walk the streets
When the sun goes down
In my little town
You don’t need defenses
In my little town where I come from
In my little town you don’t need a gun
In my little town where I come from
In my little town
