Hello Friend I don't know where you're bound But welcome to the incredible shrinking town Before too long you'll be the latest rumor going 'round They'll all smile and wave, they'll all know your name Yeah, it's not about what you do, it's all bout who you know So step right up and take a shot at the status quo Oh and let me introduce you to some good God-fearin' folk Hear the Church bells ring, listen to the choir sing
White fences, peach pie Air kisses, wishing you well So sweet So nice But if you get a secret You better not tell Street corners, back yards Good Fiction is better than fact They're masters of the art Of "bless your heart" with a knife in your back This town is that small
So help your self to some hospitality Make your peace with your brand new scaled down dreams You might think you're free to go, but you'll never leave So find yourself some shade and pour some lemonade
