It's only small town talk
You know how people are
They can't stand to see you
Being who you are
It's only small town talk
Don't pay it no mind
Don't believe a word they say
They do it to you every time
You can't believe everything you hear
And only half of what you might see
But if you have to believe in anyone
Oh please darling, believe in me
It's only small town talk
A well known fact
You don't even know how
One other might react
To what you're thinking
What are they thinking?
It's only small town talk
They tell a lot of lies
Make some people crazy
They don't realize
We're still thinking
We're only people
Trying to live together
Trying to make this little life work
Who are we to judge one another?
Lead to tears or maybe something even worse
It's only small town talk
You know how people are
They can't stand to see you
Being just exactly who you are
It's small town talk
Little bit of small town talk
Little bit of small town talk
