Buy This Town
If I could buy this town, I’d keep it small and rough, Full of 3rd shift dreamers, And high school love... I’d keep the Church of Christ, And the bowling alley open Where the Bud Light signs Crackle while they’re glowing, If I could buy this town... If I could buy one night, I wouldn’t buy the one you’d think I’d buy the one when my eyes teared up by the light above the kitchen sink... And you held me tight, And you begged me not to cry If I could buy the sweetness of one kiss That’s the one I’d buy, If I could buy one night... All the money in the world couldn’t buy a drop of real love, could it? And it really shouldn’t should it If I could buy the stars I’d polish them so bright... Letras de canciones If I could buy your pain, First I’d buy the great big sea I’d put that pain inside a box, And bury it so deep... If I could I’d buy you back The years you worked yourself to death I would buy and waste your suffering until there wasn’t any left, If I could buy your pain... All the money in the world couldn’t buy a drop of real love could it? And it really shouldn’t,should it But I’d gladly give you every piece Of my whole heart... If I could buy this town, I keep the Friday night bleachers Full of kids falling in love And unlikely believers... And the firefighters are there Cuz their kid’s in the game And we don’t win too often But that ain’t why we came, If I could buy this town... From Letras Mania
