about

Although the song references "this town", it could be any town - sadly.

lyrics

I hate this town, this town hates me. There's nothing to do, no one to be. All we are is just a truckstop, a jail house and a Walmart. Watermelons busted up and down the road looking just like body parts. They could've had it so much better if they kept the kids in school, but they were drinking all the Kool-Aid and it didn't make 'em cool. So now they're buried in the turmoil, a chain reaction of past mistakes, a rich part of our poor history that is so deeply ingrained, yeah. And the main street runs right through this crooked little town and the grass ain't even greener on the other side, no, it's still brown and the courthouse is the only place where they throw the dollars down and the good ol' boys still prance around in their pretty little white hoods and gowns. So tell me what's the big deal, watch the sheriff on the interstate. Nobody ever gets busted, but they collect all the evidence that they can take and if it comes from California then they keep it for themselves, but if it's dirty and from down below then it's stocked on all the black market shelves. Now, I'm not pointing any fingers, I'm just pointing it out. It's the kind of thing we have to grow past in order to navigate our route. So, maybe you just want to feel safe and be loved by God. Well, lift your head up and smile once in a while and I bet you'll get a nod.
