[Chorus: Stacey Michelle]
This is my town, this is my city and when I leave
I keep a little piece of you there with me
These are the nights we'll always remember
Even when we leave, this town
This town is us forever, forever
[Verse 1: Jamie Drastik]
At night, it can get cold, so bundle up
But, this is the game plan, so huddle up
If one of us make it, that's one enough
'Cause we all home team, there's no runners up
Empty bottles of liquor fill up the room
Pullin' all night, it's holla at the moon
Sunday afternoon, nobody wanna move
Monday's obligations always come through soon
The town breathes jealousy and enemies
They complain about it but they never leave
I mind my business and I let it be
Nosy neighbors is something you never wanna see
But as my flight lands in a new city
I wanna let you know I brought you with me
And while I'm gone, send the memo back home
And let 'em all know
[Chorus: Stacey Michelle]
This is my town, this is my city and when I leave
I keep a little piece of you there with me
These are the nights we'll always remember
Even when we leave, this town
This town is us forever, forever
[Verse 2: Jamie Drastik]
You know someone social back, there was a spot
He used to have his music loud, they used to call the cops
A real winner, yeah, they said he'd never have a shot
But he was down to fight the world like a shadowbox
Number one rule, protect yourself at all times
And if there's problems at the house, you say it's all fine
Close the windows, lock the doors, shut the blinds
And handle your family business up on your own time
Couple key things I learned from the town, in every corner There's something else that could bring you down
And if you wanna do something, better do it now
And it's a U-Turn if you wanna turn around
But as my flight lands in a new city
I wanna let you know I brought you with me
And while I'm gone, send the memo back home
And let 'em all know
[Chorus: Stacey Michelle]
This is my town, this is my city and when I leave
I keep a little piece of you there with me
These are the nights we'll always remember
Even when we leave, this town
This town is us forever, forever
[Verse 3: Jamie Drastik]
I'm from a town where the recession hit
And all the single mothers working double shifts
And every Christmas, there's less gifts
I ain't expectin' you to give a shit
We ain't lookin' for no sympathy
This town's a piece of shit, but is the shit to me
And when I come back, it's like a victory
You were missing me?
[Chorus: Stacey Michelle]
This is my town, this is my city and when I leave
I keep a little piece of you there with me
These are the nights we'll always remember
Even when we leave, this town
This town is us forever, forever
This is my town, this is my city and when I leave
I keep a little piece of you there with me
These are the nights we'll always remember
Even when we leave, this town
This town is us forever, forever
