Around here people call it prison
with work all around the place
But Christ has not yet risen
so we have to stay in this place
cause everybody knows me and i know them
we just a talk but sometimes just leave me be
so that i have some time to go out and visit my friends
so give give me a Saturday night dog by my side little hank Jr. and a 6 pack of light
an old dirt road and I'll be just fine
here in small town USA
people get stuck in the mud
every once in a while
i never wanted any part of that
here in small town USA
give me a Saturday night my dog by my side sweet home Charlotte and a 6 pack of light
give me a Sunday morning that's full of grace
here in small town USA
sweet home Charlotte
here in small town USA

You should write your own stuff, not steal from a country song. Justin Moore-Small town USA is where half of this came from. Sad thing when you try and claim it your own.
