Ain’t Much To Write Home About

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Raisin' babies, raisin' hell High on Jesus, hooked on pills Red dirt poor, redneck rich House on a hill or a trailer hitch Prayin' farmers, strayin' preachers Whiskey bottles 'neath the bleachers Ain't no secret, this here town It ain't much to write home about [Chorus] We got bars, we got steeples We keep 'em slammed with damn good people We got your lifers, we got your leavers Plenty of stuck here in between'ers Yeah, these backroads might get backwards Our straight and narrow need straightenin' out But I wrote my story in a town That ain't much to write home about [Post-Chorus] It ain't much It ain't much It ain't much to write home about [Verse 2] Days of glory, fields of gold Bet the farm, the farm got sold Same old song, broken needle Hear no, see no, speak no evil [Chorus] We got bars, we got steeples We keep 'em slammed with damn good people We got your lifers, we got your leavers Plenty of stuck here in between'ers Yeah, these backroads might get backwards Our straight and narrow need straightenin' out But I wrote my story in a town That ain't much to write home about [Post-Chorus] It ain't much It ain't much It ain't much to write home about But I'm right at home It ain't much It ain't much It ain't much to write home about (Yeah) [Bridge] We got our angels, we got our demons Keep our roots here, we got our reasons [Chorus] We got bars, we got steeples We keep 'em slammed with good damn people We got your lifers, we got your leavers Your "this here's sacred ground" believers [Chorus] We got bars, we got steeples We keep 'em slammed with damn good people We got your lifers, we got your leavers Plenty of stuck here in between'ers Yeah, these backroads might get backwards Our straight and narrow need straightenin' out But I wrote my story in a town That ain't much to write home about [Post-Chorus] It ain't much It ain't much It ain't much to write home about (Yeah) But I'm right at home It ain't much It ain't much It ain't much to write home about
