My Town

Lyrics

There's a for sale sign on a big old rusty tractor
 You can't miss it, it's the first thing that you see
 Just up the road, a pale blue water tower
 With "I love Jennie" painted in bright green
 Hey, that's my uncle Bill there by the courthouse
 He'll be lowerin' the flag when the sun goes down
 And this is my town
 (Nana, na, na, na) yeah, this is my town
 (Nana, na, na, na) hey! where I was born
 Where I was raised, where I keep all my yesterdays
 Where I ran off, 'cause I got mad
 And it came to blows with my old man
 Well, I came back and settled down
 This is where they'll put me in the ground
 This is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 Yeah, this is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 My town
 There ain't much goin' on here since they closed the mill
 But that whistle still blows every day at noon
 A bunch of us still go down to the diner
 I wonder if that Interstates still comin' through
 But come Sunday mornin' service at the church of Christ
 Well, there ain't an empty seat to be found
 And this is my town
 (Nana, na, na, na) yeah, this is my town
 (Nana, na, na, na) where I was born
 Where I was raised, where I keep all my yesterdays
 Where I ran off 'cause I got mad
 And it came to blows with my old man
 Well, I came back and settled down
 It's where they'll put me in the ground
 This is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 Yeah, this is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 My town
 Well, I bought and painted up that rusty tractor
 You can't miss it, it's sittin' right there in our yard
 The county came and took that water tower
 And that's Jennie with a baby in the car
 Well, we're off to Sunday service at the church of Christ
 And if we want a seat we better leave right now
 And maybe later me and T-Roy will show you around, our town
 (Nana, na, na, na) yeah, this is my town
 (Nana, na, na, na) yeah, where I was born
 Where I was raised, where I keep all my yesterdays
 Where I ran off 'cause I got mad
 And it came to blows with my old man
 I came back and settled down
 This is where they'll put me in the ground
 This is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 Yeah, this is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 Yeah, this is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 My town (my town) (nana, na, na, na)
 This is my town (nana, na, na, na)
 My town (nana, na, na, na)
 This is my town (nana, na, na, na)
