My Little Town Lyrics

We lock the doors at night

 all the sirens scream 

 I don't drive my car-- insurance is too high 

 I live here in the city-- my hometown's far away 

 I work out with concrete 

 I don't drive my car 

 

 The stars come out at night 

 to see them on the strip 

 Everybody arms themselves 

 there's no other place like this 

 I'll never leave the small town girl behind 

 The place were I come from is with me all the time 

 

 Oh, You could walk the streets when the sun goes down in my little

 town 

 You don't need defenses when the sun goes down in my little town 

 

 Back home on the street-- after ten at night 

 Mrs. Avery walks her dog, checks to see what's going on 

 She doesn't lock the door, she lives here in good health 

 You don't hear the harm when Mrs. Avery walks her dog 

 

 All I every wanted was a view of city lights 

 Break away from here-- leave behind the quiet nights 

 Spend half your life trying to make a change 

 And the other half trying to get back again 

 

 You could walk the streets when the sun goes down in my little town 

 You don't need defenses when the sun goes down in my little town

 

 Look down the road-- look up the highway

 Look past the fences-- look at the face

 What do you have on the other side?

 Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

 Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah-- oh

 

 Oh, you could walk the streeets when the sun goes down in my little

 town

 You don't need defenses when the sun goes down in my-- my town

 You could walk the streets when the sun goes down in my little town

 You don't need defenses in my little town -- where I come from

 Yeah Yeah, in my little town

 You don't need a gun-- in my little town where I come from

 Yeah Yeah, in my in my in my in my little town
