We played cops and robbers in the streets around our house
It was fun and games back then but it ain't fun now here in our town
Just a bunch of kids skipping church and acting so cool
But now we're lightning candles on a friday afternoon here in our town
We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags
When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats here in our town
We say yes ma'am and no ma'am we love we don't hate
Here in our town, here in our town
The only color we care about is that football jersey blue
So I don't know who the hell that is up there on the news that ain't our town
We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags
When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats here in our town
We say yes ma'am and no ma'am we love we don't hate
That world that's gonne crazy it don't have a place here in our town, here in our town
We're better than this tougher than tough
We might get knocked down but we get back up yeah
We were raised in the shadows of crosses and flags
When we pledge allegiance we take off our hats here in our town, our town
We say yes ma'am and no ma'am we love we don't hate
That world that's gonne crazy it don't have a place here in our town, here in our town yeah
