Paul Butterfield - Small Town Talk lyrics

It's only small town talk You know how people are They can't stand to see you Being who you are. It's only small town talk Don't pay it no mind Don't believe a word they say They do it to you every time. You can't believe everything you hear Only half of what you might see But if you have to believe in anyone I'd believe, darling, believe in me. It's only small town talk A well-known fact You don't even know How one other might react To what you're thinking What are they thinking. It's only small town talk They're telling all the lies And make some people crazy They don't realize we're still thinking. We're only people, trying to live together We're trying to make this little life work Who are we to judge one another It may lead to tears or maybe something even worse. It's only small town talk You know how people are They can't stand to see you Being just exactly who you are. It's small town talk Pittle, pattle, it's small town talk Tittle, tattle, it's small town talk.
