small towns and big dreams

i grew up in a small town

a wheat-fields-for-a-downtown kind of place

there was really not much around

you blink and you miss it

i never knew what life would bring

but i always had big dreams

i'd love to play my guitar and sing

and every night i'd wish that

i'd get a shot on the opry stage

and have people come and see me play

blastin' on the radio waves

enough to make my mama cry

that's where i come from

that's who i am

hard-workin' and god-blessed

yes sir

and thank you ma'am

the best things around that i have ever seen

came from small towns & big dreams

that small town went and grew up

but i never changed much by god's grace

friends and family kept in touch

when i moved to tennessee

i sing my songs and travel round

i met a girl and we're settling down

we want to find a small town

where we can raise a family

been around the world don't matter anywhere i go

from small town stars to city lights i've found my kind of folks

it's about you and who you are

it's all a state of mind

and as i'm givin' you my heart i hope you find that
