Small Town Smiles

She had every reason to leave
She listed a million things to me
She said "Cement covers the ground
And no one smiles in this town
I never see the stars just the street lights
Above the cars is all I see
This Big Red college town, is not for me

I wanna see copper fields of milo
Green rolling hills and silos
And a highway stretched out for miles
Interrupted by Small Town Smiles is all I need
This Big Red college town is not for me"

She had every reason to move away
But I hoped to be the reason that she'd stay
She said "This town ain't worth a dime
In fact this town wasted my time
I never see the sunrise the buildings here
Stretch far, far too high
This Big Red college town it's not alright

I wanna see copper fields of milo
Green rolling hills and silos
And a highway stretched out for miles
Interrupted by Small Town Smiles that's all I need

This college town feels alone
I said this college town's not like home
And now my heart is torn in two
Between this college town
This college town and you

(I wanna see copper fields of milo
Green rolling hills and silos
And a highway stretched out for miles
Interrupted by Small Town Smiles is all I need)

This Big Red college town it's not for me
