Small Town

If I pull the thread, she spins around until there's nothing left

What goes up must go left, at least one time, so don't have no regrets

I'ma keep you close, just let me go whenever I need you most

So move away and change your name and hide inside

Small town based New Orleans

Her place smelled like steak and coffee

Bounced off like rays on water

Stayed up real late just talking

Brown skin, like Vince and Reggie

Her tattoos are a distance memory

But that was not your best decision

'Cause I liked you better with them, ooh-ooh

If I pull the thread, she strings me long 'til I run out of gas

Know good men finish last

But I'm already here, man, that was fast

These city limits are so close together, but I still miss you

And if you grab my thread, begin to pull, I'll be an empty spool

Flower child on bare elements

With caramella skin, just like Vince and Reggie

Even though you're only ten percent

I was not your best decision, you'd be dumb to think me yours

So change your name and hide your face in a little corner

Small town based New Orleans

Her place smelled like steak and coffee

Bounced off like rays on water

Stayed up real late just talking

Brown skin, like Vince and Reggie

Her tattoos are a distance memory

But that was not your best decision

'Cause I like to fade away, ooh-ooh

Baby, I can meet you there, ooh, oh

Halfway, I can meet you this time

Yeah, and it's just a matter of love

Tell me if I'm doing too much

Baby, I can meet you there

Halfway, I can meet you this time

Yeah, and it's just a matter of love

Tell me if I'm doing too much

Baby, I can meet you there, oh, oh

Halfway, I can meet you this time
