Pryor Baird - My Town [The Voice Performance] Lyrics

There's a for sale sign on a big old' rusty tractor
You can't miss it, it's the first thing that you see
Just up the road, a pale blue water tower

With "I Love Jennie" painted in bright green
Hey, that's my Uncle Bill there by the courthouse
He'll be lowering the flag when the sun goes down
This is my town

Yeah, this is my town

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
Well, I came back and settled down
Where they'll put me in the ground
This is my town

Yeah, this is my town

Well, there ain't much going on here
Since they closed the mill
That whistle still blows every day at noon
A bunch of us still go down to the diner
I wonder if that interstate's still coming through
Come Sunday morning service at the Church of Christ
Well, there ain't an empty seat to be found
This is my town

Yeah, this is my town, oh

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
Well, I came back to settled down
Where they'll put me in the ground
This is my town, yeah

This is my town

Well, I bought and painted up that rusty tractor
You can't miss it
It's sitting right there in our yard
The county came and took that water tower
And that's Jennie with a baby in the car
Well, 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 T-Roy will show you around

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
Well, I came back to settled down
Where they'll put me in the ground
This is my town, yeah

This is my town, oh my town
