Town Ain't Big Enough

Album: Famous Friends (2019)

  • We used to be the king and the queen
    Of bringing life to a party
    When you were there with me
    I'd buy the drinks
    You'd play the songs and be singin' along a little off-key
    And just blame the whiskey

    But now I wish that we could draw a line through the city
    'Cause seein' those two blue eyes so pretty
    Messes me up like it always does
    This town ain't big enough

    Your friends and mine
    Run into each other all the time
    Seems like there ain't no place to run
    This town ain't big enough for both of us

    Now I go out and I pray the whole time
    That I won't see you smiling across the room and miss you
    But it never fails, I always do

    Wish that we could draw a line through the city
    'Cause seein' those two blue eyes so pretty
    Messes me up like it always does
    This town ain't big enough

    Your friends and mine
    Run into each other all the time
    Seems like there ain't no place to run
    This town ain't big enough for both of us
    This town ain't big enough

    I wish that we could draw a line through the city
    'Cause seein' those two blues eyes so pretty messes me up

    Your friends and mine
    Run into each other all the time
    Seems like there ain't no place to run
    This town ain't big enough for both of us
    This town ain't big enough (this town ain't big enough)
    Ain't big enough for both of us Writer/s: Cary Ryan Barlowe, Christopher Alan Young, Corey Justin Crowder, Shay Mooney
