Lyrics
Small Town
Another Saturday night on Main Street
The cars go up and down like a parade.
Jimmy Walker pulled up in his Chevy,
He feels his small town life is a charade.
And he waves to the girls that pull up to the light.
As they holler back, another Saturday night.
Down on Main Street, down on Main Street.
Just another Saturday night.
Roger Brown revs up his hemi,
He'll settle for a race or for a fight.
But, these days everyone's the wiser,
It's Main Street on a Saturday night.
Jimmy stopped to talk to the girl's at the light.
And they laughed and they joked, another Saturday night.
Down on Main Street, down on Main Street
Just another Saturday night.
This is just another small town that's just like all the rest.
And they hope for a change as they want to forget.
Break
Now there's lightning in the sky, rain is falling at their feet
They might as well head home nothing more is left to see.
Down on Main Street, down on Main Street.
Just another Saturday night.
Down on Main Street, down on Main Street.
Just another Saturday night.
Just another Saturday night.
