Montgomery Gentry - My Town lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

theres a for-sale sign on a big ol rusty tractor

you can't miss it it's the first thing that you see

just up the road a pale blue water tower

with "I love Ginny" painted in bright green

hey thats my uncle bill there by the courthouse

he'll be lowering the flag when the sun goes down

and this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

yea, this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

(chorus)

hey, where I was born

where I was raised

where I keep all my yesterdays

where I ran off cause I got mad

and I came to blows with my old man

where I came back to settle down

this is where they'll put me in the ground

this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

yea this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

this is my town

Verse 2

there ain't much going on here since they closed the mill

the whistle still blows everyday at noon

a bunch of us still go down to the diner

wonder if that interstates still comin' through

come the sunday mornin service at the church of christ

there ain't an empty seat to be found

and this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

yea, this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

(chorus)

where I was born

where I was raised

where I keep all my yesterdays

where I ran off cause I got mad

and I came to blows with my old man

where I came back to settle down

this is where they'll put me in the ground

this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

yea this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

this is my town

Verse 3

Well I bought and painted up that rusty tractor

you can't miss it its sittin right there in our yard

the county came and took that water tower

and thats Ginny with a baby in the car

All, we're off to sunday service at the church of christ

and if we want a seat we better leave right now

and maybe later me and ol t-roy will show you around

our town

nah na nah nah nah

yea, this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

(chorus)

yea where I was born

where I was raised

where I keep all my yesterdays

where I ran off cause I got mad

and I came to blows with my old man

where I came back to settle down

this is where they'll put me in the ground

this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

yea this is my town

nah na nah nah nah

this is my town
