"This Town" lyrics

"This Town"

Jimmy checks the mic at 4 PM
Tunes up an old guitar as all the tourists shuffle in
And their glass is filled with Jack and no cheap beer
And he sings a song that he keeps hoping will get him out of here

This town is full of crazy dreams, neon possibilities
Country stars and Broadway lights shining down on us tonight
It's a broken record, broken heart and honky tonks and old dive bars
It lifts you up and lets you right back down
But tonight I'll raise my glass to one more round
In this town

Becky pours her drinks for dollar tips
For couples from Chicago flyin' down for weekend trips
And her friends back home who got kids on the way
But her hair's a clean in glasses and her heart's up on that stage

This town is full of crazy dreams, neon possibility
Country stars and Broadway lights shining down on us tonight
It's a broken record, broken heart and honky tonks and old dive bars
It lifts you up and lets you right back down
But tonight I'll raise my glass to one more round
In this town

Skyline keeps on rising every year
They're knocking down old buildings 'cause California's moving here
And some people say that it don't feel the same
Well, some things might look different
But some things never change

This town is full of crazy dreams, neon possibilities
Country stars and Broadway lights shining down on us tonight
It's a broken record, broken heart and honky tonks and old dive bars
It lifts you up and lets you right back down
But tonight I'll raise my glass to one more round
In this town
