Josh Abbott Band - I'll Sing About Mine |
[00:03.20] |
. |
[00:15.95] |
In my hometown |
[00:19.14] |
Population just a few thousand |
[00:23.01] |
All of them kids at the drive-in |
[00:26.51] |
After Friday nights football game |
[00:29.33] |
. |
[00:31.89] |
That's the same place |
[00:34.51] |
Where mom and dad went on their first date |
[00:38.45] |
Had the same burger I just ate |
[00:42.20] |
Man, some things never change |
[00:45.08] |
. |
[00:48.95] |
That's what made me who I am today |
[00:52.76] |
Gave me a million songs to play |
[00:55.95] |
And when the radio's on I just don't understand |
[01:02.20] |
. |
[01:03.45] |
Because tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard |
[01:07.89] |
For small town people like me |
[01:10.95] |
And the radio's full of rich folks singin' |
[01:15.64] |
'Bout places they've never seen |
[01:18.77] |
. |
[01:20.08] |
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard, |
[01:23.64] |
I'd love to hear about it sometime |
[01:28.45] |
But let them sing about their own life |
[01:32.08] |
And I'll sing about mine |
[01:35.70] |
. |
[01:40.52] |
I'm not complaining |
[01:43.71] |
Running my mouth like an old man |
[01:47.51] |
Talking 'bout a world that's changing |
[01:51.21] |
And how it's given up on me |
[01:53.95] |
. |
[01:56.33] |
I'm just saying down at Nick's on the weekend |
[02:03.02] |
The small town anthems they're singing |
[02:06.58] |
Don't sound like what you see |
[02:09.52] |
. |
[02:13.58] |
When you talk about the dairy queen, |
[02:17.39] |
Pick up trucks and Springsteen |
[02:20.52] |
Make the place I love sound like a bad cartoon |
[02:26.52] |
. |
[02:28.65] |
Because tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard |
[02:32.65] |
For small town people like me |
[02:36.21] |
And the radio's full of rich folks singing |
[02:40.34] |
'Bout the places they've never seen |
[02:43.46] |
. |
[02:44.65] |
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard, |
[02:48.21] |
I'd love to hear about it sometime |
[02:53.03] |
But let them sing about their own life |
[02:56.53] |
And I'll sing about mine |
[03:01.93] |
. |
[03:03.37] |
And if you want a song about |
[03:07.06] |
A place like my hometown |
[03:10.68] |
Take a weekend and come on down |
[03:14.06] |
It won't take long to see |
[03:17.24] |
. |
[03:17.43] |
'Cause tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard |
[03:21.62] |
For small town people like me |
[03:25.43] |
And the radio's full of rich folks singing |
[03:29.43] |
'Bout places they've never seen |
[03:32.49] |
. |
[03:33.80] |
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard, |
[03:37.43] |
I'd love to hear about it sometime |
[03:41.99] |
But let them sing about their own life |
[03:45.87] |
And I'll sing about mine |
[03:49.24] |
. |
[03:49.87] |
They can sing about their own life, |
[03:53.74] |
I'll sing about mine |
