Lyrics

This small town ain’t small anymore
It gets bigger and bigger every day
Now the party down on Broadway never really ends
But I remember when it wasn’t that way
In this ten o’clock town

Used to, you could see the stars at night
But now the neon lights burn too bright
Back in the days I remember
this was a ten o’clock town

The shows let out at nine and the shops closed down
Outside the honkytonks, there was no one around
If you needed eggs for breakfast
you were out of luck in this ten o’clock town

This small town ain’t small anymore
It gets bigger and bigger every day
Now the party down on Broadway never really ends
But I remember when it wasn’t that way
In this ten o’clock town

Folks used to sleep at night and get up at dawn
Worked all day, came home and mowed the lawn
Now it’s hard to find a single blade of grass
Down on Fifth Avenue

Stone and wood gave way to iron and glass
Every new building is taller than the last
Bigger and colder
Than the ones that I knew

This small town ain’t small anymore
It gets bigger and bigger every day
Now the party down on Broadway never really ends
But I remember when it wasn’t that way
In this ten o’clock town

Change is gonna happen, I can hear ’em say
Only a fool holds on to yesterday

This small town ain’t small anymore
It gets bigger and bigger every day
Now the party down on Broadway never really ends
But I remember when it wasn’t that way
In this ten o’clock town
In this ten o’clock town
In this ten o’clock town
