"Town The World Forgot" lyrics
"Town The World Forgot"
Ain't no interstate runnin' through it
Ain't no easy way to get to it
Railroad company closed
Now there ain't nothin' left but tracks
In '68 it was a happenin' spot
The president came in a campaign stop
But these days no one remembers that
Just single moms and double wides
Old saw mills runnin' triple time
Yellow ribbons 'round big ol' trees
For hometown boys fightin' overseas
Bibles don't stay on thebookshelf
Farm hands work the land, man hard as hell
Though on a map it's just a tiny little unknown dot
God bless the town that the world forgot
State came in an bought a bunch of land
Sold everyone on their big plans
But time turned that field of dreams
Into concrete and waste
Ten years ago the population sign
Read double loaded dust and I
Man, grandpa would never believe
It's just single moms and double wides
Old saw mills runnin' triple time
Yellow ribbons 'round big ol' trees
For hometown boys fightin' overseas
Bibles don't stay on thebookshelf
Farm hands work the land, man hard as hell
Though on a map it's just a tiny little unknown dot
God bless the town that the world forgot
Still got the sweetest iced tea and the bluest blueberries
There's a million other reasons
This is right where I'll be buried
These single moms and double wides
Old saw mills runnin' triple time
Yellow ribbons 'round big ol' trees
For hometown boys fightin' overseas
Bibles don't stay on thebookshelf
Farm hands work the land, man hard as hell
Though on a map it's just a tiny little unknown dot
God bless this town
God bless this town that the world forgot
Yeah, that the world forgot

Cale Dodds - "Give It Back" I've got a fire burning deep in my chest
You lit it up on the day that we met
And I can't put it out
You left a taste right there on my lips
I'm still high from the very first kiss
And I ain't coming...
Chase Rice - "If I'm Bein' Honest" I don't stay up late in the middle of the night
Drink from a bottle, half empty as me
I don't cruise down Villa Place sometimes
Wonder why your car ain't parked in the street
No way not me I'm way...
Ronnie Dunn - "I Worship The Woman You Walked On" You don't wrong a heart, of a woman that loves you
You don't turn your back on her tears
The arms you leave lonely, won't wait forever (You know what?
That's why I'm here
'Cause I worship the woman...
Chuck Wicks - "Tell Me" I know it's late but babe
I gotta see you now, gotta see you now
I'm on my way and there's
no turning back now, turning back now
So tell me, do you think about me?
Did I leave a mark on your mind?...
Craig Morgan - "Hearts I Leave Behind" I wanna find what others rarely find
Conscience clean and peace of mind
Life like a book I'm proud to sign
Written on hearts I leave behind
I wanna roll on a road of my own design
We're fear and...
