I Love This Town Lyrics

we don't have a big supermarket just a mom and pop a&p
a ten man volunteer fire department, farmer's bank and guarantee
i sometimes drive to the city just to see what's going on
if for nothing else to remind myself where i belong

safe in her arms
and the cradle of these rolling plains
where country swings, corn is king
and everybody knows my name
in all the livin' i've done here
she's yet to let me down
that's why, i love this town

ol man gordy's got a low back forty where the railroad carves it in two
sparks off the tracks in a dry july
torched his crop and a barn clean through
but the bank made good on his payments til the railroad settled up
and we all pitched in cause through thick or thin
he's one of us

safe in her arms
and the cradle of these rolling plains
where country swings, corn is king
and everybody knows my name
in all the livin' i've done here
she's yet to let me down
that's why, i love this town

it's a sure foundation we've built our lives upon
the land and the people make a community strong

safe in her arms
and the cradle of these rolloing plains
safe in her arms
in the cradle of these rolling plains
where country swings, corn is king
and everybody knows my name
in all the livin' i've done here
she's yet to let me down
that's why, i love this town
