Tiny Town
Those dirt roads are gravel now
That old storefront is falling down
Same ole population sign
Still nine hundred thirty nine
They've come and gone
We'd fry fish out at grandma's house
Man I sure wish she was with us now
We learned to live
We laughed a lot
Had less time than we had thought
It's come and gone
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
No city lights but we had the stars
This whole town was my backyard
Johnny Reb Talkin' tough
I'd find out where trouble was
Just because
I'd rope swing in that river bend
Where I got baptized and born again
Finding fields
and slingin' mud
Crazy kids and summer love
Where I come from
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
I know that you can't see it on a map
But it's everything that made me who I am
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
That old storefront is falling down
Same ole population sign
Still nine hundred thirty nine
They've come and gone
We'd fry fish out at grandma's house
Man I sure wish she was with us now
We learned to live
We laughed a lot
Had less time than we had thought
It's come and gone
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
No city lights but we had the stars
This whole town was my backyard
Johnny Reb Talkin' tough
I'd find out where trouble was
Just because
I'd rope swing in that river bend
Where I got baptized and born again
Finding fields
and slingin' mud
Crazy kids and summer love
Where I come from
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
I know that you can't see it on a map
But it's everything that made me who I am
Moving forward looking back
I can't get more than what I had
All these memories like roots in the ground
I may be gone but I never left
Still the kid on that porch step
Of the only home that I have ever found
With big dreams, a big mouth
And a big heart
For that tiny town
