Luke Bryan - Small Town Favorite lyrics

rate me

<br>

<i>[Verse 1]</i><br />

How do you turn a scholarship down,<br />

Tear up a ticket, already punched,<br />

And watch a dream die?<br />

Who's gonna tell me how<br />

To face Daddy<br />

And watch Momma cry?<br />

Have I thrown my future away?<br />

Played my last football game?<br />

It all seems so strange<br />

How in just one night<br />

Your whole life can change.<br />

<br />

<i>[Chorus]</i><br />

Wish this old John Deere had wings<br />

And this cotton row was an airstrip<br />

Straight outta here.<br />

Wish this high noon Georgia sun<br />

Could melt what's been done<br />

Make it disappear.<br />

If I could leave, I'd be gone,<br />

But that's just one more thing done wrong<br />

By this small town favorite son.<br />

<br />

<i>[Verse 2]</i><br />

By fall they're all gonna know<br />

Our little secret<br />

My baby holds inside.<br />

By then she'll be startin' to show,<br />

And I'll be the husband<br />

To a shotgun bride.<br />

I already miss that sound<br />

The marching bands and the cheering crowds.<br />

Stuck here in this red dirt ground<br />

Knowin' I, I let everybody down.<br />

<br />

<i>[Chorus]</i><br />

<br />

That high noon Georgia sun<br />

Can't melt what's been done.<br />

Girl, I'll be right here<br />

I don't know much about life<br />

But I know what's right<br />

For this small town favorite son.
