I grew up in a small
town
Almost everybody knew my face
And I know many of theirs
There was right and
wrong
Nice blend of the human race
Almost everything was clear
There were the
schemers and the schemees
The liars and the
thieves
And little caring
bastards like me
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
I remember the Savannah days
I’d sit and watch
people play
Going up to the river
and
Think and make a lot
of plans
Just walking around
and round
Making folks think
that I was crazy
But every time in my
mind there was a song
And yeah we had our
own bottled up mysteries
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
Growing in a small
town has it’s advantages
And many of the
disadvantages
There were very many
opportunities
Especially for a guy
like me
I won’t forget my
neighbours and all who passed through the town
Even now that many of
the foundation have been dead and gone
Memories follow me
everywhere
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
Up in a small town
Is where I grew up
Living in a small town
I really learnt a lot
