Born and raised in Small Town, USA
driving around
with only one stoplight in your way.
To reach those gravel roads
where you and your best friends
raced down in those 1990 pickup trucks
the day you got your license.

Coming back on the same dirt roads
after beautiful summer baseball games.
Everybody meets at your house
for an all night fire,
Country music playing,
couples sneaking off into the corn rows
then eventually making their way back.

Seasons change to fall
where friday night football is king
the whole town gathers in one area to watch their favorites.
Church is a must on Sundays
where everybody knows your mom and them
The whole family spreads across the town
The greats of being raised in a Small Town, USA
