Intro
Verse 1
There's a for sale sign on a big 'ole rusty tractor
Can't miss it, it's the first thing that you see
Just up the road a pale blue water tower
Says "I love Jenny" 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
Chorus
And this is my town, na na na na na
Yeah, this is my town, na na na na na
(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
Where I came back to settle down
It's where they'll 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
Verse 2
There ain't much going 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's still comin' through
But come Sunday mornin' service at the Church of Christ
Well there ain't an empty seat to be found
REPEAT CHORUS
Instrumental
Verse 3
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 Jenny 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
<---(one strum on each of these)
And maybe later, me and ol' T-Roy will show you around
Our town, na na na na na
Yeah, this is my town, na na na na na
Yeah, where I was born, where I was raised....
(repeat the rest of chorus)
