I'll Sing About Mine-Josh Abbott Band
.
In my hometown
Population just a few thousand
All of them kids at the drive-in
After Friday nights football game
.
That's the same place
Where mom and dad went on their first date
Had the same burger I just ate
Man, some things never change
.
That's what made me who I am today
Gave me a million songs to play
And when the radio's on I just don't understand
.
Because tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard
For small town people like me
And the radio's full of rich folks singin'
'Bout places they've never seen
.
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard,
I'd love to hear about it sometime
But let them sing about their own life
And I'll sing about mine
.
I'm not complaining
Running my mouth like an old man
Talking 'bout a world that's changing
And how it's given up on me
.
I'm just saying down at Nick's on the weekend
The small town anthems they're singing
Don't sound like what you see
.
When you talk about the dairy queen,
Pick up trucks and Springsteen
Make the place I love sound like a bad cartoon
.
Because tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard
For small town people like me
And the radio's full of rich folks singing
'Bout the places they've never seen
.
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard,
I'd love to hear about it sometime
But let them sing about their own life
And I'll sing about mine
.
And if you want a song about
A place like my hometown
Take a weekend and come on down
It won't take long to see
.
'Cause tractors ain't sexy and workin' is hard
For small town people like me
And the radio's full of rich folks singing
'Bout places they've never seen
.
Now I ain't saying that their lives ain't hard,
I'd love to hear about it sometime
But let them sing about their own life
And I'll sing about mine
.
They can sing about their own life,
I'll sing about mine
