Small town girl, small town girl
Passed by empty parts unkind and in a small town world
To the streets of New York City, pull some triumph in your mind
And our liberty, unladen found in you is so unkind
People change, as bidden little girls
Did you want some other promise, small town girl
In a search for liberation
All the children in the wind
Where a small town congregation cast you out or let you in
Chorus
No you don't have to say
I know where I go astray
It was gunna go down anyway
I only wish that I could've known what I know now today
(same as verse 1)
