Famous In A Small Town

Famous In A Small Town They say life is so much sweeter Through the telephoto lens of fame Around here you get just as much attention Cheering at the high school football game I dreamed of going to Nashville Put my money down and placed my bet But I just got the first buck of the season I made the front page of the Turner "Town Gazette" Every last one, route one, rural heart's got a story to tell Every grandma, in law, ex girlfriend Maybe knows you just a little too well Whether you're late for church or you're stuck in jail Hey words gonna get around Everybody dies famous in a small town Tyler and Casey broke up It ended pretty quietly We heard he was caught red-handed with her mama That's just what they let us all believe Baby who Needs their faces in a magazine Me and you We've been stars of the town since we were 17 Let's go on down to the quick stop Wear your yellow shades And I'll put on my tight jeans And we'll just spend the weekend burning rubber And we'll let them point and stare in disbelief [Chorus]
