Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We had one red light and a Dairy Queen

Friday night ball games, cut grass dreams

Back road lessons in a dusty Ford

Mama on the porch sayin’ “Don’t be bored”

I’d stare past fields at the stretch of sky

Swearin’ I was made for bigger life

Packed that truck, left that county line

Thought I was headed for a brighter shine

[Chorus]

Now this big city feels like that small town

Same few bars, same faces hangin’ ‘round

I know every shortcut, every crack in the ground

Guess the whole wide world can settle down

From one stoplight to a skyline, I’ve seen it all

Funny how the biggest place can feel so small

[Verse 2]

High-rise windows and a paper cup

First few months just swallowed me up

Missed that gravel, missed that two-lane wave

Neighbors here don’t even know my name

But time rolled on, I found my crowd

We talk too loud, we’re hometown proud

There’s a corner booth where they know my drink

I sit there smilin’, sometimes I think—

[Chorus]

Now this big city feels like that small town

Same few bars, same faces hangin’ ‘round

I know every shortcut, every crack in the ground

Guess the whole wide world can settle down

From one stoplight to a skyline, I’ve seen it all

Funny how the biggest place can feel so small

[Bridge]

I used to chase new streets just to get lost (oh yeah)

Now I drive ‘em like those fields I crossed

Turns out it ain’t the size of where you are

It’s who you’re lovin’ underneath the stars

[Chorus]

Now this big city feels like that small town

Same few bars, same faces hangin’ ‘round

I know every shortcut, every crack in the ground

Guess the whole wide world can settle down

From that gravel road to this concrete sprawl

Funny how the biggest place can feel so small

Yeah, funny how the biggest place

Can feel so small
