Letra de Slow Down Small Town

Those old dirt roads are being paved
Town squares and court houses goin' away
Four-way stops are a thing of the past
And Sunday drives no longer last
What happened to that old porch swing
That backyard baseball field of dreams
It's grown up so much you couldn't miss it
Even if you blinked
So slow down small town
Don't let those city lights burn you to the ground
And let me have my run around
Out on those old backroads
Give me back my fishin' hole
The one that subdivision stole
It's growin' up faster than I can count
So slow down small town
They're turning railroads into walkin' trails
All the farmland's gone up for sale
Silos can no longer be seen
That kinda town's just a memory
They traded water towers for small skyscrapers
Digitalized the local paper
Put in a four-lane interstate
Just overnight, times have changed
So slow down small town
Don't let those city lights burn you to the ground
And let me have my run around
Out on those old backroads
Give me back my fishin' hole
The one that subdivision stole
It's growin' up faster than I can count
So slow down small town
So slow down small town
Don't let those city lights burn you to the ground
And let me have my run around
Out on those old backroads
Give me back my fishin' hole
The one that subdivision stole
It's growin' up faster than I can count
So slow down small town
It's growin' up faster than I can count
So slow down small town
