My Little Town

the sky is blue
the lake is great
why say "I won't"
why say I like saying "I ain't"

I gotta dog for a friend
I got BB gun dreams
gotta an uncle in the war
and a fort in the trees

and I walk where I wanna
I'm a boy on foot
think I'm big as an oak
I'm jus 'a sproutin my roots
uh huh

I know the folks
they all know me
can't all be like minded
but we can agree

leave the boy be
leave him with his bare feet
catching fishes for fun
ramping bikes in the street

I'm 'a headed home
where nothing needs fixing
but the breakfast cooking
in my momma's kitchen uh huh.

I gotta young boy's mind and it's crystal clear
I can see the whole world just standing here
It's a one street town, I gotta get out
but It won't be long and I'll be singing about
missing missing missing
missing missing missing
my little town

what's wrong momma?
everything's alright
they're outa Iraq
you can sleep at night

Oklahoma's a ways away
as far as tomorrow from today
and the rain comes down
and the grass grows green
life is a science that you just can't teach
uh huh

I gotta young boy's mind
and it's crystal clear
I can see the whole world
jus standing here
It's a one street town and I gotta get out
but it won't be long till I'm a singing about
missing missing missing
missing missing missing
my little town.
