Meghan Patrick - This Town Lyrics

Jack Daniels ain't gonna hold your hair in the morning
Them Marlboro reds ain't gonna help you sing
And that song you wrote ain't hittin' with the tourists
And those Midtown boys only want one thing

You drink all night
Write all day and it's breaking you
Just trying to catch a break

It's broke my heart more than any man
Puts me through hell but made me who I am
I'll die on this hill when it's killin' me
It's as magic as it is mean
But nothing worth a damn ever comes for free
And it don't care if I stay but I'll never leave
'Cause I love this town more than it's ever loved me

They'll try to paint your friends as competition
Don't sing too sweet but try not to sound so tough
Don't sound the same but try not to sound too different
You're too country 'til you ain't country enough

And it's broke my heart more than any man
Puts me through hell but made me who I am
I'll die on this hill when it's killin' me
It's as magic as it is mean
But nothing worth a damn ever comes for free
And it don't care if I stay but I'll never leave
'Cause I love this town more than it's ever loved me
(Ooh)

It only takes a decade if you're lucky
There ain't nothing like the come down or the high
If you make it, don't make it about the money
It ain't where I was born but I swear it's where I'll die
'Cause I love this town
I love this town
