Lyrics

All the shops close up at six
Except the Dollar General
We got more cows than people here
And baby we’ve got several
We got half a dozen churches
‘bout half as many stoplights
And even though we only got one bar
We got half a million bar fights
Don’t wanna be no city slicker but
Here on Sundays they don’t serve liquor
This town sucks
This whole place blows
There’s nothing to do
Life here moves slow
Everything you need
Can be found within a mile
But if you wanna have some fun
You’re gonna hafta drive a while
I always say I’ll leave one day
And it can’t come soon enough
Yeah, this town sucks
All the high school kids hang out
In the Walmart parking lot
And if you aren’t a dealer
Then you’re probably smoking pot
And no one locks their doors at night
But a murder’s still unsolved
And everyone in town knows
That the meth heads were involved
If you stay here you’re probably Christian
Dead, on drugs, or in locked in prison
This town sucks
This whole place blows
There’s nothing to do
Life here moves slow
Everything you need
Can be found within a mile
But if you wanna have some fun
You’re gonna hafta drive a while
I always say I’ll leave someday
And that can’t come soon enough
Yeah…this town sucks
I know I say I hate it here
But it made me who I am
So I can say it’s crap
But don’t think that means you can
Well this town sucks
This whole place blows
There’s nothing to do
Life here moves slow
Everything you need
Can be found within a mile
But if you wanna have some fun
You’re gonna hafta drive a while
It ain’t a place you move to
It’s a place that you wind up
Yeah, this town sucks
