I'm 15 and I've lived in a small town all my life. I just want out of here. I'm that stereotypical story of wishing you were in a big city, but you're stuck in hicktown USA. So, could I get a few songs about wanting to get out of the small town or just wanting to move out in general. I already have......
You're Gonna Miss This- Trace Adkins
Suds In The Bucket - Sara Evans
Breakaway - Kelly Clarkson
Outta Here - Kenny Chesney
Already Gone - Sugarland
Fast - Jason Aldean
Heads Carolina, Tails California - Jo Dee Messina
Church Pew Or Bar Stool - Jason Aldean
Baby Girl - Sugarland
I Ain't In Checotah Anymore - Carrie Underwood
Small Town Girl - Kelly Pickler
Famous In A Small Town - Miranda Lambert
New Strings - Miranda Lambert
Homeboy - Eric Church

As you can tell, I like country music and pop, but I'm open to anything, and I want a lot of music. So give me anything you have that fits, even if it's about how I'll miss it when it's gone.

It's an older country song.



Small Town Saturday Night by Hal Ketchum.



Bobby told Lucy The world ain't round.

Drops off sharp at the edge of town.

Lucy, you know the world must be flat.

cause when people leave town, they never come back.

They go ninety miles an hour to the city limits sign.

Put the pedal to the metal before they change their mind

White Horse by Taylor Swift. The last verse mentions "that was a small town there in my rear-view mirror, disappearing now.



It's so sad & that's the saddest part of the saddest verse!. I love the song so much, I even own the ultr-rare USDJ promo CD of it which is highly sought after and worth a small fortune!!



And of course, Mean by Taylor Swift. She sings about how one day, she'll be living in a big ole' city.

Bruce Springsteen, Born to Run p.s. I got here from the place you're on your existence now. the city is great, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it is likewise harsh and frightening. Please be careful. it may chew you up and spit u out.
