Boz Scaggs - Small Town Talk lyrics

It's all small town talk
You know how people are
They can't stand to see someone else
Doing what they like to
It's all small town talk
You mustn't pay no mind
Don't believe a word
They'll try to do it every time

You can't believe everything you hear
And only half of what you see
And if you're gonna believe in anyone
You gotta believe in me

It's all small town talk
And it's a well known fact
You don't ever know how one might
React to what you're thinking
And it's small town talk
They tell a lot of lies
Make some people crazy and never
Realize that they're sinking

We're only two people
Trying to live together
Trying to make something work
Who are we to judge one another?
That could cause a lot of hurt

It's all small town talk
You know how people are
They can't stand to see someone else
Doing what they want to
It's all small town talk
You mustn't pay no mind
Don't believe a word
They'll try to do it every time
