Lyrics
A lot of people called it prison when I was growin' up
But these are my roots and this is what I love
'Cause everybody knows me and I know them
And I believe that's the way we were supposed to live
I wouldn't trade one single day here in small town USA

Give me a Saturday night, my baby by my side
A little Hank Jr. and a six pack of Light
An old dirt road and I'll be just fine
Give me a Sunday morning that's full of grace
A simple life and I'll be okay
Here in small town USA

Around here we break our backs just to earn a buck
We never get ahead but we have enough
I watch people leave and then come right back
I never wanted any part of that
And I'm proud to say I love this place
Good ol' small town USA

Give me a Saturday night, my baby by my side
David Allan Coe and a six pack of Light
An old dirt road and I'll be just fine
Give me a Sunday morning that's full of grace
A simple life and I'll be okay
Here in small town USA
Oh yeah

I wouldn't trade one single day
I'm proud to say I love this place

Give me a Saturday night, my baby by my side
"Sweet Home Alabama" and a six pack of Light
An old dirt road and I'll be just fine
Give me a Sunday morning that's full of grace
A simple life and I'll be okay
Yeah, I'll be okay here in small town USA

Oh yeah, small town USA
