英文乡村歌曲：Lady Antebellum - Big Love In a Small Town

 Yeah, we were 16 and teenage¹ broke

 

Blowin' stop signs and cigarette² smoke

 

Just some bad boys and some good girls

 

Yeah, summer nights, spent the whole world

 

In your green eyes, said "ready, set, go"

 

 

Yeah, we had big love in a small town

 

What I'd give just to get a little bit back now

 

Yeah, we fell in just as fast as we fell out

 

We were too young to settle³ down and a big love in a small town

 

In a small town, yeah

 

 

We were Thunderbirds and Pontiac wild

 

Flying in your front seat, at least for a little while

 

Baby, tell me do you ever feel like

 

Our love was drowned⁴ out by a real life?

 

I've been reminiscing 'bout⁵ you and I, you and I, oh, you and I

 

 

Yeah, we had big love in a small town

 

What I'd give just to get a little bit back now

 

Yeah, we fell in just as fast as we fell out

 

We were too young to settle down and a big love in a small town

 

In a small town, baby

 

 

Do you ever think about me

 

When you close your eyes at night?

 

Do you ever think about me?

 

Lost in a dream

 

In that small town

 

In a small town

 

 

We had big love in a small town

 

What I'd give just to get a little bit back now

 

Yeah, we fell in just as fast as we fell out

 

We were too young to settle down

 

Always dead set on getting out

 

Ain't that the thing about big love in a small town?

 

In a small town, baby
