Small Town Big News Lyrics

She was born out of wedlock
When the summer turned to autumn
Somebody saw her daddy at the bus stop
They said he looked like a guy off the Waltons
Ain't nothing new, it ain't all that strange
It won't matter much in the scheme of things
There's a lot to say, but not much to do
But for a small town it was big news
Small town big news

She skipped out of high school
With a guy on a motorcycle
In a short skirt and too much rouge
She wasn't really dressed for revival

Ain't nothing new, it ain't all that strange
It won't matter much in the scheme of things
There's a lot to say, but not much to do
But for a small town it was big news
Small town big news
You are only the window
It's all black and white
You can see a whole lot more
If you could stand out of sight
A fool could see she didn't love him
But nobody stopped the wedding
At least she's doing better than her mama
With a daddy for a baby and a cold drink

Ain't nothing new, it ain't all that strange
It won't matter much in the scheme of things
There's a lot to say, but not much to do
But for a small town it was big news
Small town big news

Small town big news
Real big news
