She was the prettiest thing that they had ever seen In a small town run on God and gasoline They marvelled at her green eyes and her curls But in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl But they wore that bible belt just a little too tight Down a one way street with only one street light So to take it right you had to go the wrong way first Lord in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl CHORUS She got caught with a boy got caught with a cigarette Yea Jesus might forgive you but the preacher's never gonna forget She was everybody's gossip. Everybody prayed for her Lord in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl She grew up fast and she hiked up her Sunday gown And the high school boys learned fast they should hang around Cause in the small town nights the only thing going down was her Lord in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl Yea they were looking through their bibles she was looking through a magazine She liked them black and white and she loved them in between But those looks she got were more than she deserved Lord in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl CHORUS She took the hand of a black boy and they ran away The day she found out she was three weeks late She knew that town would never love her baby girl But in any other town she'd be just another beautiful girl CHORUS That girl was born prettiest thing her mother had ever seen In a busy hospital on a busy street Should have seen her hazel eyes, brown skin and curls But to everybody else she was just another beautiful girl
