You
get a hammer down,
throw a lift on it Ride it around till the wheels fall off
You drink your first beer,
in a back forty With your buddies at your buddies brother
learn to drive on a tractor,
learn to pray in a pew,
and how to stick to your roots.
That's what growing up in a small town does.
Yeah, you talk with a draw in your boots,
stay your scuff,
county line,
stop sign,
bird shot,
making the most of a little map dot.
You fall in love with some hometown hazel eyes,
you hit a knee,
you hit a church,
and you make it laugh.
Some people don't get it,
some people do,
cause that's what growing up in a small town does.
You got a bug now,
your granddaddy gave you,
you don't miss nothing with your 12 gauge.
You get your cash from the corn and the cattle,
your mama's a saint and your back roads are gravel.
That's what growing up in a small town does.
Yeah, you talk with a draw in your boots, stay
your scuff,
county line,
stop sign,
bird shot,
making the most of a little map dot.
You fall
in love with some hometown hazel eyes,
you hit a knee,
you hit a church,
and you make
it laugh.
Some people don't get it,
some people do,
cause that's what growing up in a small
town does.
That's what growing up in a small town does.
