IT'S HARD TO BE COOL IN A SMALL TOWN
Written by Barry P. Foley Copyright © 29 May 2015
A dress from Macy's or Walmart, all look the same To the boys hanging out, down at the bowling lanes No place to party, is driving you insane It's hard to be cool in a small town
You wanna live like Carrie from Sex in the City Your friends are as cool, as they are pretty Party every night, cause they've got plenty You can't do that in a small town
In a small town, there's nowhere to go, on a Friday night The only change in 40 years is a new stoplight It's hard to be cool in a small town
You couldn't wait to leave home after High School Go off to college, away from Mama's rules Big city kids all make fun of you They all know you come from a small town
They say everyone's famous for 15 minutes in a small town
Billy was a football star, but he's still just hanging around
He got the beauty queen pregnant when she was just 17
Now his little girl's working weekends down at the Diary Queen
It's hard to be cool in a small town
Twenty years later your man's done gone Its hard raising three kids, all on your own Your high school friends still sing the same song They think they're cool in your small town
In a small town, there's nothing to do, on a Saturday night Watching movies at home and dreaming about those big city lights It's hard to be cool in a small town
