Hummingbirds and bumblebees
and blossoms on the apple trees
and a..... sun above


A child's laughter, chasing after, trying to capture
butterflies and ladybugs

and things

And Cubie's giving kisses by the swingset

on the playground at the
old school yard


And Frankie thinks he's clever
painting cuss words and whatever
on the water tower....


(Chorus)
Life goes, on in a small town

No hurry, everything slows down
One stop light
in our little small town world


And just like an ol' Norman Rockwell
Pot lucks, churches and bake sales

Life goes on in a small town world

(Bridge)

And when I die, lay me beside
grandpa and grandma's gravestone
And when I die, make sure I

get back home... life in a small town

Every Sunday, Rosie's Cafe

has a buffet and some homemade
rhubarb pie
And the old farts at the barber shop

they love to joke and laugh alot
without their wives......... hanging around
Billy's takin' Sally raidin' gardens from the alleys

of the neighborhood
And momma's spending hours planting flowers
And a rainforrest........if she could


(Chorus)


(Bridge)

At the break of dawn the farmers gather

Drinking coffee while they chatter......on and on
And that Jimmy Johnson, doing nothin'
Playin' cards and hummin' somethin'......like

An old Beatle song........yeah

(Chorus)

Life goes on in a small town
Sweet dreams, when the sun goes down
Life goes on in a small town world

Life goes on in a small town world
