I can't go for a ride
To clear my head
'cause everything
I pass puts you back in it
Yeah we're done moving on
But you can't be too far gone
'cause what happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
Every back road
We've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile
Without a memory of you
Every whisper
Every room I walk in
Every time the bartender
Fills it up again
Everybody knows
Why I'm here
And you ain't around
'cause what happens in
A small town stays
In a small town
Oh we said this goodbye
Was the last
I guess I could leave
I could run from the past
And from us and from you
But this is where I belong
This is my home too
What happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
Every back road
We've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers
Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile without
A memory of you
Every whisper
Every room I walk in
Every time the bartender
Fills it up again
Everybody knows why I'm here
And you ain't around
'cause what happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
And I'm still here
And every time I see
That little white Jeep
Yeah that hand-me-down Ford
Pulling down your street
I wonder if somebody's in my seat
If you're moving on
Or you're stuck like me
'cause what happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
Oh yeah
What happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
Every back road
We've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers
Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile without
A memory of you
Every whisper
Every room I walk in
Every time the bartender
Fills it up again
Everybody knows why I'm here
And you ain't around
'cause what happens in a small town
Stays in a small town
Stays in a small town
Stays in a small town
Now I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here
Yeah I'm still here
I'm still here
