My Little Town

In my little town
 I grew up believing
 God keeps his eye on us all
 And he used to lean upon me
 As I pledged allegiance to the wall
 Lord, I recall my little town
 Comin' home after school
 Flyin' my bike past the gates of the factories
 My mom doin' the laundry
 Hangin' our shirts in the dirty breeze
 And after it rains, there's a rainbow
 And all of the colors are black
 It's not that the colors aren't there
 It's just imagination they lack
 Everything's the same back in my little town (my little town)
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 In my little town
 I never meant nothin', I was just my father's son
 Savin' my money
 Dreamin' of glory
 Twitchin' like a finger on the trigger of a gun
 Leaving nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
 Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
