There's a for sale sign on a big 'ole rusty tractor
Can't miss it. It's the first thing that you see
Just up the road, a pale blue water tower
says I love Jenny painted in bright green

Hey that's my uncle bill there by the courthouse
He'll be lowering the flag when the sun goes down

And this is my town, yeah this is my town

Hey! Where I was born, where I was raised

Where I ran off 'cause I got mad
Em A
And it came to blows with my old man
D Bm
Where I came back to settle down

My town
There aint'much going on here since they closed the mill
That whistle still blows everyday at noon
A bunch of us still go down to the diner
Wonder if that interstate's still commin' through
But come Sunday mornin' service at the church of christ
Well there aint' an empty see to be found
And this is my town. Yeah, this is my town
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO
Well I bought and painted up that rusty tractor
You can't miss it. It's sitting right there in our yard
The county came and took that water tower
And that's Jenny with a baby in the car
Well, 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 and ol' T-Roy will show you around
Our town Yeah, this is my town Yeah...
Repeat Chorus
