SMALL TOWN DREAM

VERSE 1
THERE'S A YOUNG "WANNA BE" I SAW TODAY
IN A KANSAS TOWN, A LONG WAY FROM L.A.
NORMA JEAN HAIR, SOME BLUSH ON HER FACE
SHE WALKS WITH CAREFUL CHARM AND GRACE
CHORUS
SHE HAS A SMALL TOWN DREAM OUT OF SMALL TOWN HIGH
IT'S ALL SHE REALLY WANTS TO DO
ALL THOSE L.A. LIGHTS SHININ' IN HER EYES
TILL HER SMALL TOWN DREAM COMES TRUE
VERSE 2
IT'S A MAIN STREET TOWN, A STOP LIGHT AND DAIRY QUEEN
THERE'S A WAYS TO GO TO THE BRIGHT LIGHT SCENE
HER STARRY EYES AND WISTFUL GLANCE
THEY SAY TO ME, "I'M HERE TO DANCE"
CHORUS
SHE HAS A SMALL TOWN DREAM OUT OF SMALL TOWN HIGH
IT'S ALL SHE REALLY WANTS TO DO
ALL THOSE L.A. LIGHTS SHININ' IN HER EYES
TILL HER SMALL TOWN DREAM COMES TRUE
BRIDGE
HAD A SPEAKING PART IN A SENIOR PLAY
HAS A MODEL'S WALK DOWN A LONG RUNWAY
SHE SAYS SHE'S NOT DISCOURAGED
IT'LL TAKE A LITTLE TIME.........
SO SHE WATCHES ALL THE MOVIES
WHERE THE LEADING WOMEN SHINE
...AND SHE WAITS A LITTLE LONGER FOR HER TIME
CHORUS
SHE HAS A SMALL TOWN DREAM OUT OF SMALL TOWN HIGH
IT'S ALL SHE REALLY WANTS TO DO
ALL THOSE L.A. LIGHTS SHININ' IN HER EYES
TILL HER SMALL TOWN DREAM COMES TRUE
