A Name In This Town Lyrics


Josh Thompson A Name In This Town


I knocked out Buster Johnson,
On the playground after school.
I went from being a 3rd grade punk,
to 6th grade cool.
Yeah, I still hold the land speed record,
down county road 5-0-9.
Judge Taylor said he was real impressed,
but wouldn't waive the fine.
Yeah, I still got my picture on the bait shop wall,
with a 6 lb. Smallmouth Bass.
ha, I see that I'm still loved and hated on that overpass.

(Chorus)
Yeah, I got a name in this town,
some good, and some bad that I'll never live down.
Anywhere else I'm just a face in the crowd,
But I got a name in this town.
Yeah, I got a name in this town.

Might have to fight my way out of Lucy's,
when I show up tonight.
'Round here it seems old scores,
old flames man they never die.
Then again it might just be a bunch of back slappin',
when I walk through that door.
here the same old stories,
that keep gettin' bigger than they were before.
I packed my things and hitched my dreams,
to a superstar.
And if the world out there,
don't give a damn about me or this guitar.
It won't matter at all

(Chorus)
'Cause I got a name in this town,
some good, and some bad that I'll never live down,
anywhere else I'm just a face in the crowd,
but I got a name in this town.

Yeah, I got a name in this town,
Been called a few things I can't say right now,
A little hard-headed and a little to proud,
but I got a name in this town.
Yeah, I got a name in this town.
Whoa

Risk-taker, Heart-breaker, Trouble-Maker,
Man I got a name in this town.

Big-Dreamer, Dead-Ringer, Not A Bad Singer,
Yeah, I got a name in this town.

S.O.B., Wild & Free, You Know Me,
Man, I got a name in this town

I got a name in this town!
I got a name in this town...
