This Town's Been Too Good to Us

Gave us that hilltop place to park Gave us them girls that stole our hearts Gave us them bucks up on the wall The way we live and the way we talk Gave us state that senior year Them country stores to buy that beer A place to go nobody knows When you take it in and you take it Slow like that river rolls Where that green grass grows I can't explain it Aw, it's something, ain't it? Yeah, we sure painted it up, tore down them old two-lane roads We either stole every sign or left 'em in bullet holes It wasn't nowhere as bad as we all said that it was Yeah, looking back at it now, this town's been too good to us Raised hell on the weekends, yeah Man, what were we thinking when we said We'd leave it in a cloud of dust? This town's been too good to us Good people in a back row pew Good dirt that the corn grows through Good water that can wash away our sins Good times with some damn good friends Whole lot of not too much to do All the time in the world to do it Every bit of that down home dirt was Heaven on Earth And we never knew it Yeah, we sure painted it up, tore down them old two-lane roads We either stole every sign or left 'em in bullet holes It wasn't nowhere as bad as we all said that it was Yeah, looking back at it now, this town's been too good to us Raised hell on the weekends, yeah Man, what were we thinking when we said We'd leave it in a cloud of dust? This town's been too good to us Too good to us Slow like that river rolls Where that green grass grows I can't explain it, aw, it's something, ain't it? (Something, ain't it? Something ain't it?) Yeah, we sure painted it up, tore down them old two-lane roads We either stole every sign or left 'em in bullet holes It wasn't nowhere as bad as we all said that it was Yeah, looking back at it, now this town's been too good to us Raised hell on the weekends, yeah Man, what were we thinking when we said We'd leave it in a cloud of dust? This town's been too good to us Yeah, too good to us This town's been too good to us
