Sometimes I get to thinking
I oughta take up drinking
Just to drown out all these memories
Maybe I could down a whiskey bottle
And head out on the highway
Just to see if it'll bring some peace
But I aint a drinking girl
I'm just a small town woman
Trynna find my way in a lonesome world
And I aint a whiskey girl
I'm just a small town woman
Trynna walk a straight line in a crooked world
Sometimes when I wake up in the morning
My mind it starts a-wandering
Wanting to roam its way right out of my head
And I get to thinking bout that man
Wonder if he's headed south again
Maybe I'll follow where that booted-baby led
But I aint a wandering girl
I'm just a small town woman
Trynna find my way in a lonesome world
And I aint a south-bound girl
I'm just a small town lady
Trynna walk a straight line in a crooked world
Sometimes I get to thinking
I oughta take up drinking
Self-medicate you right off of my mind
Or may-be I could take some morphine
God knows its pain relief I need
Works better than waiting for some holy sign
But I aint a medicating girl
I'm just a small town woman
Trynna find my way in a lonesome world
And I aint a morphine mama
I'm just a small town lady
Trynna walk a straight line in a crooked world
I'm just a small town woman
Trynna walk a straight line in a crooked world
