LITTLE TOWN
Johnny greets me as I walk down the stairs
And he smiles as he asks me for some change
A cigarette, we joke about the mayor
And we’re glad that we know each other’s names
And I love this Little Town in every little way, yeah
And it never let’s me down because it happens every day
A woman’s yelling as I make it to the corner
And she’s spitting at some yuppies walking by bye
But I’m a townie now and safe from old money
And I egg her on to make another try
There’s a cruiser and blue lights, she exits from the stage
But they’re laughing at the sight because it happens every day
Well, I don’t see why we should change
The good things, they never ever seem to stay the same
It happens every day
There’s a sharp difference on a cold night
From the man on the bench to the family by their firelight
Some of them they were once friends
Little Town turn around, you're changing once again, well, oh, oh, oh
It happens every day
It happens every day, yeah
It happens every day, every day
Well, I don’t see why we should change
The good things, they never ever seem to stay the same
It happens every day (It’s happening today)
