Lyrics

[Intro: "Memaw" Barbara Musgraves] We had a girl that came in with a drug overdose the other day And she got real belligerent, and she bit one of the nurses (Oh man) I mean, she bit, and you could see every tooth (Oh, no) It took two or three of us to get her off of her It's a crazy Wednesday [Verse 1] We finally got a flashing light They put it in last year And everybody got real happy When the grocery store got beer And last time the census men came a-knocking We were busting at the seams [Refrain] Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting This town's too small to be mean [Verse 2] Big enough for a zip code A VFW A good Mexican restaurant A beauty shop or two We got a Methodist, a Baptist And a Church of the Nazarene [Refrain] Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting This town's too small to be mean Yeah, it's too dang small to be mean [Chorus] Too small to be lying Way too small to cheat Way too small for secrets 'Cause they're way too hard to keep And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother And around here, we all look out for each other [Verse 3] You'll end up in the paper Wreck your family name What goes around comes back around By Friday's football game We only got one sheriff But we all know how to keep the peace [Refrain] Aw, and don't you forget it, as big as we're getting This town's too small to be mean [Chorus] Too small to be lying Way too small to cheat Way too small for secrets 'Cause they're way too hard to keep And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother And around here, we all look out for each other [Outro] Yeah, somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother And around here, we all look out for each other
