Small Town Girl lyrics

(James Dean Hicks/Claudia Church)

Her mama hangs up the clothes on the line
Wearin a smile while she s doing it
Her daddy makes a living one day at a time
For 23 years he s come through with it
But she s 17 and dreams of so much more
Than a restless heart
A rusted-out car
And a job at the local food store

She s a small town girl
With big city dreams
She pictures herself
On Vogue Magazine
Well that mountain ahead
Aint as high as it seems
For a small town girl
With big city dreams

Her best friend s crazy
About a football star
When she gets out of school
She s gonna marry him
Sometimes she wishes
She was more like her
Without this ambition she s carrying
But her mind runs away
When she lays down at night
How to get there from here
It all seems so clear
When she turns out the light

She s a small town girl
With big city dreams
She pictures herself
On Vogue Magazine
Well that mountain ahead
Aint as high as it seems
For a small town girl
With big city dreams

Her mama hangs the clothes on the line
Her daddy makes a living one day at a time

She s a small town girl
With big city dreams
She pictures herself
On Vogue Magazine
Well that mountain ahead
Aint as high as it seems
For a small town girl
With big city dreams

She s a small town girl
With big city dreams
