Lyrics of Small Town Skyscrapers by Jordan Rager
I was a rebel
Straight outta high school.
I was born to break,
Not just bend them rules.
Thought this town was too small
To hold a kid like me.
I was too cool,
10 foot tall,
And bulletproof.
I was high on a tractor
And hell on wheels.
Took off on it one day through my old man′s field.
Headed north big city,
Pourin' concrete and steel.
Now every time I come home
I realize how much I miss my
Skyscrapers
Towering over the ponderosa pines,
The water tower, the old church steeple,
The high school football lights.
It may not be no New York CIty,
But to me and all my neighbors,
We still look up to those small town skyscrapers.
Well I been to Seattle,
Hollywood and Vine.
St. Louis and Frisco about as far as the crow flies.
I got tired of the red lights
And feelin′ fenced in.
I've been a few places, I've been there and back again.
Where you feel like paint drying on a wall,
Just a face in the crowd that′s moving at a crawl.
From city to city, if there′s one thing I've found
It′s how much I love my town
And all of them skyscrapers
Towering over the ponderosa pines,
The water tower, the old church steeple,
The high school football lights.
It may not be no New York City,
But to me and all my neighbors,
We still look up to those small town skyscrapers.
Skyscrapers, towering over the ponderosa pines,
The water tower, the old church steeple,
The high school football lights.
No it may not be no New York City,
But to me and all my neighbors,
We still look up to those small town skyscrapers
