Small Town Girl Lyrics

Small town girl, small town girl
Passed by empty parts unkind and in a small town world
To the streets of New York City, pull some triumph in your mind
And our liberty, unladen found in you is so unkind
People change, as bidden little girls
Did you want some other promise, small town girl
In a search for liberation
All the children in the wind
Where a small town congregation cast you out or let you in

[Chorus]
No you don't have to say it
I know where I go astray
It was gonna go down anyway
I only wish that I could've known what I know now today

As a boy, as a boy
Well I was just so serious, as a boy
And all the streets of New York City,
Shut me right down to my core
Now I've been battered scared and broken
But I'm not scared anymore

No you don't have to say it
I know where I go astrayed
It was gonna go down anyway
I only wish that I could have know what I know now today

Instrumental
Yeah yeahhh
Da da dada da da da
Da da dada da da da
Oooh oooh oooh

No you don't have to say it...
I know where I go astray

No you don't have to say it
I know where I go astray
It was gonna go down anyway
I only wish that I could have known what I know now today
I only wish that I could have known what I know now today
I only wish that I could have known what I know now today
