Small Town Jericho 歌词

Well, it's two miles East to West Only four miles North to South And when you pass the only red light You will see the pastor's house People look you in the eye And they smile at you and wave Yeah, they always take the time To stop and ask you, 'How's your day?' It's hard to say goodbye 'Cause baby, it's a good life At the high school football game Is where I got my first kiss I still feel the butterflies I still taste it on my lips And when we lost our Uncle Jake Back in 1983 We heard Daddy upstairs weepin' So we cried ourselves to sleep It's hard to say goodbye 'Cause baby, it's a good life Goodbye to mem'ries that I saved Goodbye to all the friends I made Goodbye to all the home I'll ever know Small town Jericho...(goodbye) And every road here looks the same This ol' town won't ever change And that's what I love the most And it's the reason I must go I put boxes on the porch Daddy puts them in the car Best to get the loadin' done Won't be easy in the dark 'Cause I'm leavin' after midnight And if anyone asks why I wanna wait 'til Mama's sleepin' 'Cause I can't bear to see her cry It's hard to say goodbye 'Cause baby, it's a good life Goodbye to mem'ries that I saved Goodbye to all the friends I made Goodbye to all the home I'll ever know Small town Jericho...(goodbye)
