I grew up in a tiny town. Sidewalks rolled up When the sun went down, And we played in the streets 'til my mom said come in, In that tiny town. My dad ran a station By the railroad track. Half his life Spent on his back Underneath a car Lord he worked so hard In that tiny town. They say home is where your heart is And I guess it's true. And they say you can't go back But I close my eyes And I'm drivin through. My mom sold Avon In the neighborhood. I'd wait in the car Hopin she'd done good. So I'd have a dime to spend On the icecream man In that tiny town. I got the car When I was just 15 And 5 dollars bought A lot of gasoline To the drive in picture show Where we used to go In that tiny town. They say home is where your heart is And I guess it's true. And they say you can't go back But I close my eyes And I'm drivin through. Now the years They fly by so fast. So much in life We lose to the past, But I'm proud to say That I was raised In a tiny town. Yeah I'm proud to say That I was raised In a tiny town.
