Small Town Talk - Boz Scaggs

It’s all small town talk, you know how people are

They can’t stand to see someone else doing what they like to

It’s all small town talk, you mustn’t pay no mind

Don’t believe a word, they’ll try to do it every time

You can’t believe everything you hear

And only half of what you see

And if you’re gonna believe in anyone

You gotta believe in me

It’s all small town talk, and it’s a well known fact

You don’t ever know how one might react to what you’re thinking

And it’s small town talk, they tell a lot of lies

Make some people crazy and never realize that they’re sinking

We’re only two people, trying to live together

Trying to make something work

Who are we to judge one another?

That could cause a lot of hurt

It’s all small town talk, you know how people are

They can’t stand to see someone else doing what they want to

It’s all small town talk, you mustn’t pay no mind

Don’t believe a word, they’ll try to do it every time
