My Town

[Verse 1]
Football lights, Friday nights
Don't play no more
But that's still my team
And back behind those bleachers
There's a spot where I kissed
The homecoming queen

[Verse 2]
Spent most of my years in these ten square miles
It's seen all of my tears
It's seen all of my smiles
I always said I wanted to leave
Now it's the only place I want to be

[Chorus]
This is my town, this is my town
There ain't an inch of road I ain't been down
This is my town, this is my town
Long as I'm living I'll be hanging 'round
It's the middle of nowhere
But I call it home there
I ain't afraid to say it loud and proud
This is my town, this is my town

[Verse 3]
Everybody knows everybody
And everybody knows me by my first name
As the world gets complicated
We just try to keep it simple
And stay the same

[Verse 4]
There's dirt on them roads
I don't want them to pave it
Every memory I got
Yeah, them dirt roads they made it
If you're anything like me
Take your drink and raise it
Yeah, go on and say it

[Chorus]
This is my town, this is my town
There ain't an inch of road I ain't been down
This is my town, this is my town
Long as I'm living I'll be hanging 'round
It's the middle of nowhere
But I call it home there
I ain't afraid to say it loud and proud
This is my town, this is my town, yeah

[Bridge]
It's the middle of nowhere
But I call it home there
That's what I'm all about
It's where I was raised
At the end of my days
It's where they'll lay me down

[Chorus]
This is my town, this is my town
There ain't an inch of road I ain't been down
This is my town, this is my town
Long as I'm living I'll be hanging 'round
It's the middle of nowhere
But I call it home there
I ain't afraid to say it loud and proud
This is my town, this is my town
Oh, this is my town
