This Town Lyrics

She was walking with lover at night
Momma didn't know where she was nearly started a riot
She called the police to check it out
Took her boyfriend downtown
They thought he was a criminal
Yeah, thought he was a real hard case
But she thought
Oh what do they know anyway
In this town

Was a Friday night football game
Down at the high school stadium
She was a cheerleader with her
Quarterback sneaking out behind the bleachers to play
Cause they don't care what people say in this town
In this town
In this town

Nothing ever changes in this town
The story's always the same one in this town
And its thank you lord for keeping us safe
And its thank you mother for making us brave

She was a single mother working at a restaurant
Under protective custody
And everyday her boy reminds her of what they lost
By moving away from the city
And she says I know you miss your friends in LA
But at least your father is so far away
From this town
From this town

Nothing ever changes in this town
Oh the story's always the same one in this town
And its thank you lord for keeping us safe
And its thank you mother for making us brave
For making us brave

And there's an old man on the front porch swing
And he's always talking to nobody
But if you ever stop to listen
You might learn a thing or two
Yeah, I'm talking to you
See he once was a young man
And he was holding a young girl's hand
And they were walking down by the lake in about 1948
And they had a first kiss
Oh with the moon shining down
And they had true love
Oh it really could be found in this town
Oh in this town
Yeah in this town
Yeah in this town

Nothing ever changes in this town
Oh the story's always the same one in this town
And its thank you lord for keeping us safe
And its thank you mother for making us
Oh for making us brave
For making us brave

In this town
Oh in this town
