Cheryl Wheeler - I Know This Town lyrics

Well, I know these streets and these backyards This barn that's fallin' down We come to where they're building now And ride our bikes around. You think I'm just a little kid Some trouble on the way Well I knew that place before you did Is all I've got to say. (Chorus) I'm only walkin' through these streets and all around I'm only walkin' I know this town We come home through these fields at night About a million times I walk the road with my eyes closed And all the paths beside. And I know the boy who broke this fence I know his brothers too And they'd never give me half a chance If I let on to you. (Repeat Chorus) We dam the streams we raid the shacks And hide in box cars on the tracks We know these quarries in our sleep And where they're cold and where they're deep I'll go down to the bowling alley Buy smokes and Dentyne I find some loose change every day Under that coke machine (Repeat Chorus) You check me out when you drive by Like there was some big deal I know so much you'll never find From there behind your wheel (Repeat Chorus)
