Lyrics

Well he wore my name in a tatoo on his arm
And in a tender voice he said he'd wait for me
Yeah you're dreams are bigger than some red dirt farms
But the grass on the other side aint always green
Then, i, said good bye, and on those silver wings he let me fly

Well I gave him a kiss but I would not give my heart
To a small town boy
Heaven forbid that I'd ever miss the arms
Of a small town boy

Now the south bound wheels on this gray hound bus
Can't carry me home fast enough
Well I got off track now I gotta win back the love
Of a small town boy

Has he found a warmer touch or a pretty face?
Does he lay with her down where the lilacs grow?
Oh those city boys could never take his place
Will I find the humble words to tell him so?

Can, i, turn back time?
Does a fool deserve the right to change her mind?

Well I gave him a kiss but I would not give my heart
To a small town boy
Heaven forbid that I'd ever miss the arms
Of a small town boy

Now the south bound wheels on this gray hound bus
Can't carry me home fast enough
Well I got off track now I gotta win back the love
Of a small town boy

I miss the little things
Like the summer heat, the fire flies, dancein slow on a stary night
When I was the apple of his eye
Let me still be the apple of his eye

Well I got off track now I gotta win back the love
Well I got off track wont you help me win back the love
Of a small town boy
Small town boy
Small town boy
Small town boy
