[Intro]
Don't like livin' in a dirty town
Don't like livin' in a dirty town
I don't like livin' in a dirty town, 'cuz a dirty town gets me down
[Verse 1]
Life's alright in devil town(I saved up and I bought some land 'cause I can't stand livin' in a dirty town)
Yeah, right, no one's gonna catch us now(Yeah, I pinched my pennies and I put 'em down and I washed my hands of a dirty town)
Daddy's bought a new car now(Plant my seeds in the ground
Yeah, I put 'em down in my new-found land)
We're fine, no one's gonna catch us now('Cause you can't plant seeds in a dirty town no, you can't plant seeds in a devil town)
[Chorus]
Devil town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
[Verse 2]
We're all dead in Devil town, that's fine, nothing's gonna scare us now (ah, ah, ah, ah, all I need)
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah all I need is a chicken wire and a chicken feed
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, all I see is a newfound land fertility!
[Chorus]
Devil town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too
(too, too, too, too)
[Verse 3]
I choppin' firewood, choppin' firewood
Chop-chop-chop
Just like a country boy should be choppin' wood
I country
My kindling sticks are the perfect little width
Kindling sticks
[Bridge]
Don't like livin' in a dirty town (hahaha)
Don't like livin' in a devil town
I don't like livin in a dirty town
'cuz a devil town gets me down
[Chorus]
Devil town is colder in the summertime
I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times
Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night (ooooooohhh)
I still get a little scared of something new
But I feel a little safer when I'm with you
Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too-ooh
