The woman that I love is someone's wife.
Today she settling into married life.
But I remember how it was
When time hung like humidity
and we made love on steamy summer nights.
I watched them leave the church from my truck.
I drank a pint of vodka to their luck.
Afterward I wanted to leave town
Turn around and drive away
So far I wouldn't hear if it burned down.
Damn this town.
It's got me down.
Nothing sucks the life out of you
Like a little town.
Damn this town.
I ain't hanging round.
Gonna find me a great big city,
Gonna move downtown.
There's a Wal-mart coming in down the road.
Folks act like we hit the motherlode.
I watched then as they bulldozed the site.
I dedicate the parking lot
in memory of one hot Georgia night.
Damn this town.
It's got me down.
Nothing sucks the life out of you
Like a little town.
Damn this town.
I ain't hanging round.
Gonna find me a great big city,
Gonna move downtown.
Damn this town. Damn this town. Damn this town.
