Payton Taylor - Small Town Paradise lyrics

rate me

Some people think paradise

is Palm Trees or neon lights,

A tall, fruity drink in their hand

on a beach somewhere with their cheeks in the sand

Well, they can keep all of those big city dreams,

Paradise is a whole lot more

simple to me.

(chorus)

It’s where there’s horse farms, backyards,

Pickup trucks and steel guitars,

Barbecues and tailgates

Kids say “yes ma’am”, “no sir”,

Say their prayers and go to church.

Friday night football games.

There's no place else I’d rather spend my life

than a small town paradise.

Some dream to buy the top of the line

But a Ma’ and Pa’ shop for me works fine

That concrete jungle might wear you thin

Here, the people talk slower and call you kin.

Porch swings are miles wide, and words are sweet as the tea.

The air’s a lot cleaner, you can call me a dreamer

But there’s no place I’d rather be

(Chorus 2)

It’s where there’s open land, helping hands,

Homemade lemonade stands,

Hammocks in between the trees

There’s Fishin’ holes, college bowls

Old Glory on the flag poles

Tractor’s driving down the street

There's no place else I’d rather spend my life

Than a Small town-

Every soldier gets a welcome home parade

Mommy and Daddy leave the doors unlocked

And the kids don't feel afraid.

[Both Choruses]

There's no place else that's ever felt so right.

Yeah, and there's no place else I'd rather spend my life.

Than a Small Town Paradise<br />

<br />
