Wade Bowen - The Secret to This Town lyrics
[Wade Bowen - The Secret to This Town lyrics]
Number twenty-five got his jersey up high
In that mechanic shop down on main
There's no stopping when ya get him talking
'Bout the play that took 'em to state
I can almost see it as his eyes light up
Right with him in the glory days
Some boys went to college, some went to war
He stayed around to make the keys crank
These city limit's are the people in it
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
And a band playing on a Friday night
Team lined up on the 50 yard line
With the fans in the stands
Making the sweetеst sounds
And that's the secret to this town
Thе girl next door just turned twenty-four
And now she's married and she got a kid
She used to daydream about
The day she'd leave
Now she's glad as hell she never did
Now it's hurry up and wait and baseball games
And a home-by-supper-time kiss
Sometimes got it made is a
Life you wouldn't trade
'Cause there ain't much better than this
These city limit's are the people in it
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
Working your hands 'til they bleed
Just to make sure you got all you need
Fallin' into the arms of the one you
Love when you lay it down
That's the secret to this town
It's a place to come back to
Where everybody really knows you
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
Made-from-scratch potluck table
Always give when you're able
Take a piece of it no
Matter where you're bound
Yeah all ya gotta do is just look around
That's the secret to this town
Oh, that's the secret to this town
In that mechanic shop down on main
There's no stopping when ya get him talking
'Bout the play that took 'em to state
I can almost see it as his eyes light up
Right with him in the glory days
Some boys went to college, some went to war
He stayed around to make the keys crank
These city limit's are the people in it
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
And a band playing on a Friday night
Team lined up on the 50 yard line
With the fans in the stands
Making the sweetеst sounds
And that's the secret to this town
Thе girl next door just turned twenty-four
And now she's married and she got a kid
She used to daydream about
The day she'd leave
Now she's glad as hell she never did
Now it's hurry up and wait and baseball games
And a home-by-supper-time kiss
Sometimes got it made is a
Life you wouldn't trade
'Cause there ain't much better than this
These city limit's are the people in it
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
Working your hands 'til they bleed
Just to make sure you got all you need
Fallin' into the arms of the one you
Love when you lay it down
That's the secret to this town
It's a place to come back to
Where everybody really knows you
It's amazing grace that's found
In this main-street sacred ground
Made-from-scratch potluck table

That's the secret to this town
Oh, that's the secret to this town
