Lyrics This Town - Trixie Mattel, Shakey Graves

This Town

I used to drive about 70 late at night
Cops would see me and they’d let me drive on by
'Cause there’s stuff to do and men to meet
And drinks to have and women to be
Turned out she’s turned off the light
And it feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Won’t hold you down
You either work the land or the fiberglass plant in town
You maybe got out or you never did settle down
With the lord’s prayer said and the winter came
And the icing wind on the interstate
Never was lost and you’d never knew what you’d found
And it feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Won’t hold you down
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mmm, I never did settle down
Mmm…
This town
We lit a fire night and the fish still fry the same
Seeing to remind all the lights and the high school games
I hear you play on the radio
But you changed your name and you can’t go home
Never been so close, so far away
And it feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
This town feels like
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Won’t hold you down
This town
