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

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
