One Horse Town



Lyrics

In the tiny town where I come from
You grew up doing what your daddy does
And you don't ask questions
You do it just because
You don't climb to high or dream too much
With a whole lot of work
And a little bit of luck
You can wind up right
Back where your daddy was
This little bitty town it ain't nothing new
We all stick around
'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride
Just to make your family proud
If I didn't think
That it would shut the whole place down
I'd ride my poney right
Out of this one horse town
Yeah this one horse town
I'm an old married man at the age of 23
Got 2 little boys on the baseball team
And that might be their only ticket out
All they got is a worn out name
And a daddy that could've gone all the way
But I hang my saddle up and I settled down
This little bitty town it ain't nothing new
We all stick around
'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride
Just to make your family proud
If I didn't think
That it would shut the whole place down
I'd ride my poney right
Out of this one horse town
Yeah this one horse town
Oh yeah
This little bitty town
Oh yeah it ain't nothing new
We all stick around
'cause they all tell us too
Swallow your pride
Just to keep your family proud
If I didn't think
That it would shut the whole thing down
I'd sattle that one horse
And ride it right out of this town
