Intro :(XX0033) (4x)   Well I was  born in a small town   And I live in a small town      Prob'ly die in a small town Oh, those small communities All my friends are so small town My parents live in the same small town My job is so small town Provides little opportunities Instrumental :(XX0033) (2x) Educated in a small town   Taught the fear of Jesus in a small town Used to daydream in that small town Another boring romantic that's  me But I've seen it all in a small town Had myself a ball in a small town Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town Now she's small town just like me No I cannot forget where it is that I come from I cannot forget the people who love me Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town And people let me be just what I want to be (XX0033) (2x) (XX0033) (2x) Got nothing against a big town Still hayseed enough to say look who's in the big town But my bed is in a small town Oh, and thats good enough for me Well I was born in a small town And I can breathe in a small town Gonna die in this small town And that's prob'ly where they'll bury me Finale :(XX0033) (7x)

La chanson évoque la vie simple et les traditions d'une petite ville, où l'artiste a grandi et où il se sent chez lui. Il parle de ses racines, des amis qu'il a connus et de la manière dont son environnement a façonné son identité. Malgré les limites que cela peut impliquer, il exprime un attachement profond à ce mode de vie et à ces personnes qui l'entourent. Il reconnaît également les opportunités limitées que cela offre, mais estime que la simplicité et l'authenticité qui en découlent sont suffisantes pour lui. En fin de compte, il réaffirme son lien indéfectible avec sa petite ville, là où il souhaite vivre et être enterré.
