We got five-hundred people
We got one red light
Those folks 'round here get married
And settle down by 25
But my mama gave me this guitar
When I was 12 years old
And as far as I can tell
It's the only thing I'll ever hold
I guess that road less traveled on
Is the one I chose to take
But sometimes it seems I'm trying to see
How much this heart can break
Trying to be a big deal in a small town
Yeah, you learn to fly solo
And you learn to be proud
No you don't wanna leave
But you gotta get out
And then one day life's path is going to lead you back to
The cheers of a hometown crowd
Gonna be a big deal in a small town
Be a big deal in a small town, yeah
I played every fair and front porch
From here to Tennessee
Wondering if one day I'll wake up
And give up on these crazy dreams
But as long as there's still one last person
Standing in that crowd
I'll be up here on the stage
Doing the only thing I know how
Trying to be a big deal in a small town
Yeah, you learn to fly solo
And you learn to be proud
No you don't wanna leave
But you gotta get out
And then one day life's path is going to lead you back to
The cheers of a hometown crowd
Gonna be a big deal in a small town
Be a big deal in a small town, whoa!
