lyrics

Two lane road ain't going nowhere
And you ain't gonna get there fast
Get caught behind an old cane truck
And it's way too curvy to pass

Got pulled over with an open beer
By a sheriff's deputy
We used to work at the Stop-N-Go
He walked up and just laughed at me

I'm not ashamed of where I'm from
A small town is fine with me
It's just small-minded people that I don't see
Why you can't just let
Everybody else be

Come deer season all the boys
Disappear into the woods
Leaving lonely ladies home alone
And I'd steal 'em when I could

I used to think those backwoods girls
They must've hung the moon
But an uptown girl she turned my head
Got me humming a diffrent tune

I'm not ashamed of where I'm from
A small town is fine with me
It's just small-minded people that I don't see
Why you can't just let
Everybody else be

I started craving the bright lights
About the time I learned to read
One-horse town couldn't keep me around
There’s just too much room to breathe
