Smalltown snapshot and musings on the difficulties associated with following your dreams.

Lyrics

You cry wolf

This town that I grew up in is, filled full of nothing
One moment you?ll be driving here, the next you?re going away again
The only thing that ever, brightens it up
Is the Ferris wheel or the, carnival truck

Wish I?d never finished high school, wish I?d never met that guy
I kind of ended up with him, but I don?t know why
My mother said I?m old enough, it?s time to settle down
Everyone knows everyone in, my little town

Chorus:
Last night I fell in love with the radio
This heart of mine is such a lonely town sometimes you know
You city girls cry wolf and you cry crocodile tears
I?ll take anything that?s going where the circus goes from here
I?ll take anything that?s going where the skies are hard and clear
I?ll take anything that?s going close to, out of here

Some days I watch the highway roll down by the liquor joint
And wonder what?s out there beyond the vanishing point
And the Salvation army band, the refinery lights
And this small town on a Saturday night

Chorus:
Last night I fell in love with the radio
This heart of mine is such a lonely town sometimes you know
You city girls cry wolf and you cry crocodile tears
I?ll take anything that?s going where the circus goes from here
I?ll take anything that?s going where the skies are hard and clear
I?ll take anything that?s going close to, out of here
