35 Mph Town-Toby Keith
Mama locked the door last night
For the first time in all of her years
I said Mama you gotta be kiddin' me
She said things ain't like
they used to be 'round here
You just wouldn't believe it
Kids growin' up without Jesus
A good thing your Daddy
ain't here to see this now
They stay higher than the water tower
In this thirty-five mile an hour town
She said it ain't the drugs,
it ain't the booze
I've had a back road buss or two myself
It seems like heaven's
slippin' further away
The devil ain't got far to go
when they raise hell
We used to burn a hole through midnight
Smoking a stolen Marlboro Light and
On a good night might kill a fifth of Crown
But now there's a lower higher power
In this thirty-five mile an hour town
Oh we can't blame the
babies for growin' up lazy
And crazy, it ain't them that let them down
If they ain't stealin', they're suin'
Why work when we'll give it to 'em
It's right there in the Bible
we don't put out
Spare the rod and you'll sour a
Thirty-five mile an hour town
The "yes ma'am's" gone
and the "please's" too
It's out the door with the "thank you"
In the evening you don't
see a front yard football game
The neighbor kids have done away
With the shirts and skins
No one hits the front porch lights
To get their kids to come inside
Cause the streets ain't safe
For a bike to ride down
Since they printed a prowler
In this thirty-five mile an hour town
No they're going nowhere fast tonight
No matter how fast they drive in this
Thirty-five mile an hour town
