One Horse Town

In the tiny town where I come from You grew up doing what your daddy does And you don't ask questions you do it just because You don't climb too high or dream too much With a whole lot of work and a little bit of luck You can wind up right back where your daddy was This little bitty town, it ain't nothing new We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too Swallow your pride just to make your family proud If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town Yeah, this one horse town I'm an old married man at the age of 23 Got two little boys on the baseball team And that might be their only ticket out All they got is a worn out name And a daddy that could've gone all the way But I hang my saddle up and I settled down This little bitty town, ho, it ain't nothing new We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too Swallow your pride just to make your family proud If I didn't think that it would shut the whole place down I'd ride my pony right out of this one horse town Yeah, this one horse town Oh, yeah This little bitty town, oh yeah, it ain't nothing new We all stick around 'cause they all tell us too Swallow your pride just to keep your family proud If I didn't think that it would shut the whole thing down I'd saddle that one horse and ride it right out of this town, ho-ho
