i was born in a small town
mama was a farmer's wife
we knew everyone for miles around
we live here all our lives
it never even ended their minds
i might not wanna stay
but i'm young and still got time
i got to get away
and there's one stoplight blinking on and off
everyone knows when the
neighbors call
they roll up the streets when the sun goes down
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i've seen places on the tv
where they stay up all night long
around here it's early to bed
and they rise before the dawn
they say the old ways are still the best
i cannot deny it
but i can't get no rest
cause it's just too quiet
and there's one stoplight blinking on and off
everyone knows when the
neighbors call
they roll up the streets when the sun goes down
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
now i lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if i should die for the world turns round
lord don't leave me in this one horse town
lord don't leave me in this one horse town
lord don't leave me in this one horse town
lord don't leave me in this one horse town
where there's one stop light blinking on and off
everyone knows when the
neighbors call
they roll up the streets when the sun goes down
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
there's one stop light blinking on and off
everyone knows when the neighbors call
they roll up the streets when the sun goes down
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
i'm a midnight girl in the sunset town
