Built For A Small Town

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hey, girl, how's that new studio apartment? Sounds like I'm not the only one still a little broken-hearted You're there in a new place and I know that that can be lonely Just know that, when the city sleeps and you can't, you can call me [Pre-Chorus] I know you wanted me to come with you Make a run for west coast sun with you But my roots run deeper than that ocean, these emotions Girl, I love you, but you know me And you know there's nothin' for me in them [Chorus] Champagne-soaked Malibu nights Baby, you need the sun 'cause you need to shine You were born to fly, I was born to stick around Baby, I was built for the Wheat wavin' in the southern wind Boots in the dirt that I grew up in You were built for big-time, big dreams for chasin' down And, baby, I was built for a small town [Verse 2] You might could make me feel at home out there for a weekend But come Sunday, this old boy'd be on the first red-eye leavin' And I wish I could just up and uproot my life for you But that'd mean changin' who I am and I just can't afford to Girl, you know there's nothin' for me in them [Chorus] Champagne-soaked Malibu nights Baby, you need the sun 'cause you need to shine You were born to fly, I was born to stick around Baby, I was built for the Wheat wavin' in the southern wind Boots in the dirt that I grew up in You were built for big-time, big dreams for chasin' down And, baby, I was built for a small town, yeah Baby, I was, I was built for a small town (I was built for a small town) [Bridge] I know you wanted me to come with you Make a run for the west coast sun with you But my roots run deeper than that ocean, these emotions Girl, I love you, but you know me And you know there's nothin' for me in them [Chorus] Champagne-soaked Malibu nights Baby, you need the sun 'cause you need to shine You were born to fly, I was born to stick around (Woah, to stick around, yeah) Baby, I was built for the Wheat wavin' in the southern wind Boots in the dirt that I grew up in You were built for big-time, big dreams for chasin' down (Yeah, go chase 'em down) Baby, I was built for a small town Baby, I was, I was built for a small town
