We lock the doors at night
  All the sirens scream
  I don't drive my car
  Insurance is too high
  
  I live here in the city
  My hometown's far away
  I workout with concrete
  I don't drive my car
  
  The stars come out at night
  You see them on the strip
  Everybody arms themselves
  There's no other place like this
  
  I'll never leave this
  Small town girl behind
  The place where I come from
  Is with me all the time
  
  Oh, you could walk the streets
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  You don't need defenses
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  
  Back home on the street
  After 10 at night
  Mrs. Avery walks her dog
  Checks to see what's going on
  She doesn't lock the door
  She lives here in good health
  You don't hear the horn
  When Mrs. Avery walks her dog
  
  All I ever wanted
  Was a view of city lights
  Break away from hree
  Leave behind the quiet nights
  Spend half your life
  Trying to make a change
  Then the other half
  Trying to get back again
  
  Oh, you could walk the streets
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  You don't need defenses
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  
  Look down the road
  Look at the highway
  Look past the fences
  Look at the faces
  What do you have on the other side?
  
  Oh, you could walk the streets
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  You don't need defenses
  When the sun goes down
  In my my town
  You could walk the streets
  When the sun goes down
  In my little town
  You don't need defenses
  In my little town where I come from
  In my little town you don't need a gun
  In my little town where I come from
  In my little town
