Story behind the song
Has anyone ever been slightly accused of being one who didn't know much because they were from small town America? Well, I have and this song relates some personnal topics that I have seen or heard from my small home town. Listen and tell what you think of it. I'm new, so I'm learning. Thank Guys
Lyrics
Verse 1
There's nothing like growing up to me in a small town
It's always safe to walk the streets when the Sun goes down
On Friday nights you can hear the roar from the football crowd
Five dollars at the gate but if you come late you're never turned down (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that’s a Big Time in Small Town to me
Verse 2
It's the stories you were told by the preacher ‘bout the 23 rd Psalm
How he held the hands of the bloody men with the Cross in his palm
He would whisper to them softly "Can you see the Lamb"?
And a force of light would lift their souls to the Promised Land (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me (Bridge)
Bridge
There’s stillness in the air when the Sun fades to sleep
And the prayers they will rise tonight for the Lord to keep
The many times you wished upon the stars for what you seek
There still remained the pain that seems to run skin deep (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Verse 3
The people in these towns are the first to say we must forgive
And the way your Daddy raised you up boy don’t you ever forget
There will always be a memory that will make you laugh and want to live
The people are their best when they really know it's time to give (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Verse 4
Keeping the faith and the American way and lovin' your Mom
Remember the night when you came home late from the senior Prom
You walked a pretty girl up to her door and you tried to be calm
Twenty years gone and she's moved on like a love song (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Bridge
There’s stillness in the air when the Sun fades to sleep
And the prayers they will rise tonight for the Lord to keep
The many times you wished upon the stars for what you seek
There still remained the pain that always seems to run skin deep (Chorus)
Chorus
That's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Oh, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me
Yea, that's a Big Time in Small Town to me (Outtro)
