Well Iâve been around
Since before the trains came through.
Well Iâve seen a lot.
But the first time my heart broke in two
Was when they brought those Johnson brothers back
To their mama with a flag.
Well Iâm a small town.
Thereâs hundreds just like me.
Yeah, but Iâm the one
Where you happened to be.
When you learned how to ride your first bike up and down my street.
Where you grew up and just couldnât wait to just get out.
Iâm a small town.
Chorus:
Where everyone knows everyone.
There ainât no secrets around here.
Son, either you love me
Or you hate me for everything I am.
Either I hold your heart
Or I hold you down.
Iâm a small town.
Just a dot there on the map.
If you blink youâll miss me eh, well go ahead and laugh.
But Iâm where you kissed your first someone.
Iâm where you hit your last homerun.
Iâm where you lay your grandpa in the ground.
Iâm a small town.
Chorus:
Where everyone knows everyone.
There ainât no secrets around here.
Son, either you love me
Or you hate me for everything I am.
Either I hold your heart
Or I hold you down.
Iâm a small town.
You left in a cloud of dust.
Big city bound but I never once gave up.
And when you looked into that newborn angelâs eyes and it occurred
There was only once place good enough for herâ¦
Chorus:
Where everyone knows everyone.
There ainât no secrets around here.
Son, either you love me
Or you hate me for everything I am.
Either I hold your heart
Or I hold you down.
Iâm a small town.
Iâm a small town.
Iâm a small town.
Iâm a small town.
Iâm a small town.
Yeah, Iâm small town.
