In a water tower town
everybody waves
Church doors
are the only thing
that's open on Sundays
Word travels fast
Wheels turn slow
Yeah workin' hard
and livin' right
is the only life we know
Friday night football is king
Sweet tea goes good
with anythin'
Fireflies come out
When the sun goes down
Nobody eats till you say amen
And everybody knows
your mama's name
You can see who loves
who from miles around
In a water tower town
Well your friends a friend
And your words your word
And our pick-up trucks
they ain't for looks
They're made for work
Corn grows high
Crime stays low
There's little
towns everywhere
where everybody knows
Friday night football is king
Sweet tea goes good
with anythin'
And the girls come out
when the sun goes down
Nobody eats till you say amen
And everybody knows
your mama's name
You can see who loves who
from miles around
In a water tower town
Friday night football is king
Sweet tea goes good
with anythin'
Peach and quiet makes
such a beautiful sound
Nobody eats till you say amen
And everybody knows
your mama's name
You can see who loves who
from miles around
In a water tower town
Yeah in a water tower town
