“This Town” is the second single from Trixie Mattel’s fourth studio album entitled “The Blonde & Pink Albums”. The single features noted Americana musician Shakey Graves.
The song is a bittersweet, folksy country ballad to her midwestern hometown. It is the penultimate track on the album.
[Verse 1: Trixie Mattel]
I used to drive about seventy late at night
Cops would see me and they'd let me drive on by
'Cause there's stuff to do and men to meet
And drinks to have and women to beat
Turns out she's turned off the light
[Chorus: Trixie Mattel]
And it feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Won't hold you down
[Verse 2: Trixie Mattel]
You either work the land or the fiberglass plant in town
You maybe got out or you never did settle down
With the Lord's prayer said and the winter came
And the icing wind on the interstate
Never was lost and you'd never knew what you'd found
[Chorus: Trixie Mattel]
And it feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Won't hold you down
[Bridge: Trixie Mattel]
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mm-mm
This town
[Verse 3: Shakey Graves]
Well, it's a Friday night and the fish still fry the same
Seeing for a mile all the lights of the high school games
Well, I hear you played on the radio
But you changed your name and you can't go home
Never been so close, so far away
[Chorus: Trixie Mattel & Shakey Graves]
And it feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Won't hold you down
