|
I knocked out Buster Johnson,
|
On the playground after school.
|
I went from being a 3rd grade punk,
|
to 6th grade cool.
|
Yeah, I still hold the land speed record,
|
down county road 5-0-9.
|
Judge Taylor said he was real impressed,
|
but wouldn't waive the fine.
|
Yeah, I still got my picture on the bait shop wall,
|
with a 6 lb. Smallmouth Bass.
|
ha, I see that I'm still loved and hated on that overpass.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Yeah, I got a name in this town,
|
some good, and some bad that I'll never live down.
|
Anywhere else I'm just a face in the crowd,
|
But I got a name in this town.
|
Yeah, I got a name in this town.
|
|
Might have to fight my way out of Lucy's,
|
when I show up tonight.
|
'Round here it seems old scores,
|
old flames man they never die.
|
Then again it might just be a bunch of back slappin',
|
when I walk through that door.
|
here the same old stories,
|
that keep gettin' bigger than they were before.
|
I packed my things and hitched my dreams,
|
to a superstar.
|
And if the world out there,
|
don't give a damn about me or this guitar.
|
It won't matter at all
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
'Cause I got a name in this town,
|
some good, and some bad that I'll never live down,
|
anywhere else I'm just a face in the crowd,
|
but I got a name in this town.
|
|
Yeah, I got a name in this town,
|
Been called a few things I can't say right now,
|
A little hard-headed and a little to proud,
|
but I got a name in this town.
|
Yeah, I got a name in this town.
|
Whoa
|
|
Risk-taker, Heart-breaker, Trouble-Maker,
|
Man I got a name in this town.
|
|
Big-Dreamer, Dead-Ringer, Not A Bad Singer,
|
Yeah, I got a name in this town.
|
|
S.O.B., Wild & Free, You Know Me,
|
Man, I got a name in this town
|
|
I got a name in this town!
|
I got a name in this town...
