Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was born in a small town, Mama was a farmer's wife
We knew everyone for miles around, we lived here all our lives
It never even entered their minds, I might not wanna stay
But I'm young and still got time, I got to get away
[Verse 2]
And there's one stop light blinkin' on and off
Everyone knows when their neighbors cough
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
[Verse 3]
Seen places on the TV, where they stay up all night long
Around here it's early to bed, and they rise before the dawn
They say the old ways are still the best, I cannot deny it
But I can't get no rest 'cause it's just too quiet
[Verse 4]
And there's one stop light blinkin' on and off
Everyone knows when their neighbors cough
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
[Verse 5]
Now I lay me down to sleep, pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die 'fore the world turns round
[Verse 6]
Lord, don't leave me in this one horse town
Lord, don't leave me in this one horse town
Lord, don't leave me in this one horse town
Lord, don't leave me in this one horse town
[Verse 7]
Well there's one stop light blinkin' on and off
Everyone knows when their neighbors cough
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
[Verse 8]
There's one stop light blinkin' on and off
Everyone knows when their neighbors cough
They roll up the streets when the sun goes down
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
I'm a midnight girl in a sunset town
