[Verse 1]
[Eb]We finally got a flashing light, they put it in last year
[Eb]And everybody got real happy when the grocery store got beer
[Ab]And last time the census men came a-knockin', we were busting at the seams
[Ab]Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting
[Ab]This town's too small to be mean
[Verse 2]
[Eb]Big enough for a ZIP code, a VFW
[Eb]A good Mexican restaurant, a beauty shop or two
[Ab]Got a Methodist, a Baptist, and a Church of the Nazarene
[Ab]Aw, but don't you forget it, as big as we're getting
[Ab]This town's too small to be mean
[Ab]Yeah, it's too dan[Eb]g small to be [Ab]mean
[Chorus]
[C#]Too small to be lying
[C#]Way too small to cheat
[C#]Way too small for secrets
[Eb]Cause they're way too hard to keep
[Ab]And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin
[Ab]And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband
[Abm]And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother
[Abm]And around here, we all [C#]look out for each other
[Instrumental]
[Eb] [Ab]
[Verse 3]
[Eb]You'll end up in the paper, wreck your family name
[Eb]What goes around comes back around by Friday's football game
[Ab]We only got one sheriff, but we all know how to keep the peace
[Ab]Aw, and don't you forget it, as big as we're getting
[Ab]This town's too small to be mean
[Chorus]
[C#]Too small to be lying
[C#]Way too small to cheat
[C#]Way too small for secrets
[Eb]Cause they're way too hard to keep
[Ab]And somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin
[Ab]And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband
[Abm]And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother
[Abm]And around here, we all [C#]look out for each other
[Outro]
[Ab]Yeah, somebody's mama knows somebody's cousin
[Ab]And somebody's sister knows somebody's husband
[Abm]And somebody's daughter knows somebody's brother
