There's a 'For Sale' sign on a big old rusty tractor. | |
You can't miss it, it's the first thing that you see. | |
Just up the road, a pale-blue water tower, | |
With 'I Love Jenny' painted in bright green. | |
Hey, that's my Uncle Bill, there by the courthouse. | |
He'll be lowerin' the flag when the sun goes down. | |
And this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Hey! | |
Where I was born, where I was raised. | |
Where I keep all my yesterdays. | |
Where I ran off 'cos I got mad, | |
An' it came to blows with my old man. | |
Where I came back to settle down, | |
It's where they'll put me in the ground: | |
This is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
My town. | |
There ain't much goin' on here since they closed the mill. | |
But that whistle still blows ev'ry day at noon. | |
A bunch of us still go down to the diner. | |
I wonder if that interstate's still comin' through. | |
Come Sunday morning service, at the Church of Christ, | |
Well there ain't an empty seat to be found. | |
And this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Where I was born, where I was raised. | |
Where I keep all my yesterdays. | |
Where I ran off 'cos I got mad, | |

This is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
My town. | |
Well, I bought and painted up that rusty tractor. | |
You can't miss it, it's sittin' right there in our yard. | |
The County came and took that water tower, | |
And that's Jenny, with a baby, in the car. | |
Ah, we're off to Sunday service at the Church of Christ, | |
And if we want a seat, we better leave right now. | |
And maybe later, me an old T-roy will show you around, | |
Our town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, this is my town. | |
(Na, na, na, na, na.) | |
Yeah, where I was born, where I was raised. | |
Where I keep all my yesterdays. | |
