My Town Lyrics

There’s a “For Sale” sign on a big ol’ rusty tractor
Can’t miss it, it’s the first thing that you see
Just up the road a pale blue water tower
With “I Love Jenny” painted in bright green
Hey that’s my uncle bill there by the court house
He’ll be lowerin’ the flag when the sun goes down

And this is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
Hey where I was born where I was raised where I keep all my yesterdays
Where I ran off cause I got mad and it came to blows with my old man
I came back and settled down this is where they’ll put me in the ground
This is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
My town

There ain't much goin’ on here since they closed the mill
That whistle still blows everyday at noon
A bunch of us still go down to the diner
Wonder if that interstate still comin’ through
Come sunday mornin’ service at the church of christ
There ain't a empty seat to be found

And this is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
Where I was born where I was raised where I keep all my yesterdays
Where I ran off cause I got mad and it came to blows with my old man
I came back and settled down this is where they’ll put me in the ground
This is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
My town

Well I bought and painted up that rusty tractor
Can’t miss it, it’s sitting right there in our yard
The county came and took that water tower
And that's Jenny with a baby in the car
We’re off to sunday service at the church of christ
And if we want a seat we better leave right now
And maybe later me and ol’ T Roy will show you around, our town

Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah where I was born where I was raised where I keep all my yesterdays
Where I ran off cause I got mad and it came to blows with my old man
I came back and settled down this is where they’ll put me in the ground
This is my town
Na na na na naaa
Yeah this is my town
Na na na na naaa
This is my town
Na na na naaa...
