Seen It All In A Small Town

“I’ve seen it all in a small town.
Had myself a ball in a small town.
Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town,
now she’s small town just like me.

No I cannot forget where it is that I come from.
I cannot forget the people who love me.
Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town
and people let me be just what I want to be

Got nothing against a big town.
Still hayseed enough to say
look who’s in the big town.
But my bed is in a small town.
Oh, and that’s good enough for me.

Well I was born in a small town.
And I can breathe in a small town.
Gonna die in this small town
and that’s probably where they’ll bury me”

– John Mellencamp (Small Town) | Travel Quote of the Day
