I can't go for a ride to clear my head
'Cause everything I pass puts you back in it
Yeah we're done, movin' on
But you can't be too far gone
[Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell]
'Cause what happens in a small town stays in a small town
Every back road, we've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you
Every whisper, every room, I walk in
Every time the bartender fills it up again
Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around
'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town
[Verse 2: Lindsay Ell]
Oh we said this goodbye was the last
I guess I could leave, I could run from the past
And from us, and from you
[Lindsay and Brantley]
But this is where I belong, this is my home too
[Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell]
What happens in a small town stays in a small town
Every back road, we've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you
Every whisper, every room, I walk in
Every time the bartender fills it up again
Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around
'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town
[Bridge: Brantley Gilbert and Lindsay Ell]
Yeah, I'm still here, yeah
Yeah, and every time I see that little white Jeep
Yeah, that hand-me-down Ford pullin' down your street
You wonder if somebody's in my seat
If you're movin' on or you're stuck like me
What happens in a small town, stays in a small town
Oh yeah
[Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell]
What happens in a small town stays in a small town
Every back road, we've ever gone down
Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews
Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you
Every whisper, every room, I walk in
Every time the bartender fills it up again
Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around
(You ain't around)
'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town
[Outro: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell]
It stays in a small town
It stays in a small town
And I'm still here
(what happens in a small town)
I'm still here
(Stays in a small town)
I'm still here
Yeah I'm still here
I'm still here
[Verse 1: Brantley Gilbert] I can't go for a ride to clear my head 'Cause everything I pass puts you back in it Yeah we're done, movin' on But you can't be too far gone [Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell] 'Cause what happens in a small town stays in a small town Every back road, we've ever gone down Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you Every whisper, every room, I walk in Every time the bartender fills it up again Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around 'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town [Verse 2: Lindsay Ell] Oh we said this goodbye was the last I guess I could leave, I could run from the past And from us, and from you [Lindsay and Brantley] But this is where I belong, this is my home too [Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell] What happens in a small town stays in a small town Every back road, we've ever gone down Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you Every whisper, every room, I walk in Every time the bartender fills it up again Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around 'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town [Bridge: Brantley Gilbert and Lindsay Ell] Yeah, I'm still here, yeah Yeah, and every time I see that little white Jeep Yeah, that hand-me-down Ford pullin' down your street You wonder if somebody's in my seat If you're movin' on or you're stuck like me What happens in a small town, stays in a small town Oh yeah [Chorus: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell] What happens in a small town stays in a small town Every back road, we've ever gone down Friday night bleachers, Sunday pews Ain't a county line mile without a memory of you Every whisper, every room, I walk in Every time the bartender fills it up again Everybody knows why I'm here, and you ain't around (You ain't around) 'Cause what happens in a small town, stays in a small town [Outro: Brantley Gilbert & Lindsay Ell] It stays in a small town It stays in a small town And I'm still here (what happens in a small town) I'm still here (Stays in a small town) I'm still here Yeah I'm still here I'm still here Explain Request ×
