small town big news
Singer: big country
she was born out of wedlock
when the summer turned to autumn
somebody saw her daddy at the bus stop
they said he looked like a guy off the waltons
ain't nothing new
it ain't all that strange
it won't matter much in the scheme of things
there's a lot to say
but not much to do
but for a small town it was big news
small town big news
she skipped out of high school
with a guy on a motorcycle
in a short skirt and too much rouge
she wasn't really dressed for revival
ain't nothing new
it ain't all that strange
it won't matter much in the scheme of things
there's a lot to say
but not much to do
but for a small town it was big news

you are only the window
it's all black and white
you can see a whole lot more
if you could stand out of sight
a fool could see she didn't love him
but nobody stopped the wedding
at least she's doing better than her mama
with a daddy for a baby and a cold drink
ain't nothing new
it ain't all that strange
it won't matter much in the scheme of things
there's a lot to say
but not much to do
but for a small town it was big news
small town big news
small town big news
real big news
