Текст песни I'll Sing About Mine

In my hometown
Population just a few thousand
All of those kids at the drive in
After Friday nights football game
That s the same place
Mom and dad went on their first date
Had the same burger I just ate
Man some things never change
That s what made me who I am today
Gave me a million songs to play
When the radios on I just don t understand
Because tractors ain t sexy,
And workin is hard,
For small town people like me
And the radios full of rich folks singin
About places they ve never seen
And I ain t sayin their lifes aint hard
Id love to hear about it sometime,
Let em sing about their own life
And I ll sing about mine.
I m not complaining,
Running my mouth like an old man
Talking about a world that s changing
And how its given up on me
And I m just saying
Down at nicks on a weekend
Small town anthems they re singin g
Don t sound like what you see


When you talk about the dairy queen
Pickup trucks and Springsteen
Make the place I love
Sound like a bad cartoon
Because tractors ain t sexy,
And workin is hard,
For small town people like me
And the radios full of rich folks singin
About places they ve never seen
And I ain t sayin their lifes aint hard
Id love to hear about it sometime,
Let em sing about their own life
And I ll sing about mine.
If you want a song about
A place like my hometown
Take a weekend to come on down
It won t take long to see
Because tractors ain t sexy,
And working is hard,
For small town people like me
And the radios full of rich folks singing
About places they ve never seen
And I ain t saying their life s ain t hard
I d love to hear about it sometime,
Let em sing about their own life
And I ll sing about mine.
They can sing about their own life
And ill sing about mine.
