My Town Lyrics – My Town
Lyrics: My Town
Album: My Town
Artist: Montgomery Gentry
There’s a for-sale sign on a big, old rusty tractor
Can’t miss it. It’s the first thing that you see
Just up the road a pale blue water tower
I love Jenny painted it bright green
That’s my Uncle Bill there by the courthouse
He’ll be lowering the flag when the Sun goes down
And this is my town
(Na na na na na)
Chorus:
Yeah, this is my town
(Na na na na na)
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 blow for my old man
Where I came back to settle down
They’re gonna put me in the ground
This is my town
(Na na na na na)
Yeah, this is my town
(Na na na na na)
My town
There ain’t much goin’ 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
Wonder if that interstate’s still comin’ through
Come Sunday morning service at the Church Of Christ
There ain’t an empty seat to be found
And this is my town
(Na na na na na)
(Repeat chorus)
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
If we want a seat we’d better leave right now
Maybe later, me and T-Roy will show you around
Our town
(Na na na na na)
(Repeat chorus)
(Repeat ‘My town’ and ‘na na na na na’ until fade)
