Small Town Talk
[Verse 1]
It's all small town talk, you know how people are
They can't stand to see someone else doing what they like to
It's all small town talk, you mustn't pay no mind
Don't believe a word, they'll try to do it every time

[Bridge 1]
You can't believe everything you hear
And only half of what you see
And if you're gonna believe in anyone
You gotta believe in me

[Verse 2]
It's all small town talk, and it's a well known fact
You don't ever know how one might react to what you're thinking
And it's small town talk, they tell a lot of lies
Make some people crazy and never realize that they're sinking

[Bridge 2]
We're only two people, trying to live together
Trying to make something work
Who are we to judge one another?
That could cause a lot of hurt

[Verse 3]
It's all small town talk, you know how people are
They can't stand to see someone else doing what they want to
It's all small town talk, you mustn't pay no mind
Don't believe a word, they'll try to do it every time
