Just a song I wrote
The people of my hometown
G………..Cadd9
Salesman preacher
Bible thumper
History teacher
Standing all in a row
Small town people
With big ideas
Afraid to dream
To get up and go

They travel with me
C………………………..G
In the stories that I tell
D……………………………….Em
They are with me each and every night

The people of my hometown
Uncle Bobby
Gender Bender
Sister Mister
All of them in the show
There are old ones
Raising young ones

In love with Marilyn Monroe

Banker Barbers
Downtown walkers
Taxi Drivers
